فؤادي منكَ مغمورُ

فؤادي منكَ مغمورُ

وطرفي فيكَ معذورُ

وطرفي فيكَ معذورُ

My heart is overwhelmed by you,

My heart is drowned in you

and my gaze is excused where you are concerned.

And my eyes are excused in you

وسري من دموعِ العَي

وسري من دموعِ العَي

نِ مشهورٌ ومنشورُ

نِ مشهورٌ ومنشورُ

And my secret, through the tears of the eye,

And my secret from the tears of my eyes

is well known and spread abroad.

Is known and spread

لقد حذرت لا أعر

لقد حذرت لا أعر

فُ لو يدفعُ محذورُ

فُ لو يدفعُ محذورُ

Indeed, I have been wary; I do not know

I was warned not to confess

whether what is dreaded can be averted.

Even if the danger is repelled

ولكن نصرةٌ خابت

ولكن نصرةٌ خابت

أعانتها المقاديرُ

أعانتها المقاديرُ

But help came to nothing;

But promised aid has failed

the decrees of fate lent it aid.

Destiny has supported it
