مَا أَنْسَ مِنْ طِيبِ عَيْشِي

مَا أَنْسَ مِنْ طِيبِ عَيْشِي

لا أَنْسَ يَومَ القِرَانِ

لا أَنْسَ يَومَ القِرَانِ

Whatever I may forget of the sweetness of my life,

Whatever I may forget of the sweetness of my life,

I shall not forget my wedding day,

I shall not forget the day of my marriage,

وَلا جَلاَلَ زَفَافِي

وَلا جَلاَلَ زَفَافِي

وَرَوْعَةَ المَهْرَجَانِ

وَرَوْعَةَ المَهْرَجَانِ

nor the splendor of my bridal procession

Nor the grandeur of my wedding,

and the magnificence of the celebration,

And the splendor of the celebration,

وَلا لِحَاظِ لَدَاتِي

وَلا لِحَاظِ لَدَاتِي

وَقَدْ وَدَدْنَ مَكَانِي

وَقَدْ وَدَدْنَ مَكَانِي

nor the glances of my peers

Nor the glances of my peers,

as they wished themselves in my place—

As they longed to be in my place.

يَومَ شَفَى النَّفْسَ فِيهِ

يَومَ شَفَى النَّفْسَ فِيهِ

لِقَاءُ مَنْ يَهْوَانِي

لِقَاءُ مَنْ يَهْوَانِي

the day my soul grew serene

The day on which my soul was healed

upon meeting the one who loves me.

By meeting the one who loves me.

فَلْيَكْلأِ اللهُُ سَعْدِي

فَلْيَكْلأِ اللهُُ سَعْدِي

وَلْيَرَعَ مَا أَعْطَانِي

وَلْيَرَعَ مَا أَعْطَانِي

May God, then, safeguard my happiness

So may God safeguard my happiness,

and preserve what He has given me.

And may He preserve what He has given me.
