1. غَرامي إليكُم ما عليهِ مزيدُ

    وطرفي ودمعي شاهدهٌ وشَهيدُ

    My passion for you can grow no greater.

    And my gaze and my tears both bear witness to it.

  2. أَحنُّ إليكُم والمهامهُ بينَنَا

    فَودِّي قَريبٌ والَمزارُ بَعيدُ

    I yearn for you, though vast deserts lie between us.

    So my love is near, though the place of meeting is far.

  3. عَسَى طِيبُ أيَّامِ السُّرورِ تَعودُ لي

    نَعم وَلَيالي الوصلِ مِنكَ تَعودُ

    May the sweetness of joyful days return to me.

    Yes, and may the nights of union with you return.

  4. أأحبابَنا كم لي إليكُم صَبَابةً

    وَشَوقي عَلَى مَرِّ الزَّمانِ يَزيدُ

    O our beloved ones, how great is my yearning for you!

    And my longing grows with the passage of time.

  5. ألا فانعِموا لي بالسَّلامِ مَعَ الصبَّا

    فَإِنَّ فُؤادي مُدنَفٌ وَعَميدُ

    Ah, bestow on me greetings with the east wind,

    For my heart is lovesick and sorely stricken.

  6. نَعَم وَسَلوا بانَ الحِمَى هَل أمَالَهُ

    غَرامي وَدَمعي للِمطيِّ ورُودُ

    Yes, ask the bān tree of the sanctuary whether it was bent

    By my passion, and whether my tears are a watering place for the mounts.

  7. تُرى هَل تَعودُ الدَّارُ تَجمَعُ بَيننا

    وَتَرجِعُ أَيَّامُ الحِمَى وَتَعودُ

    I wonder, will the dwelling again bring us together?

    And will the days of the sanctuary return once more?

  8. لَئنِ رَجَعَت تِلكَ اللَّيالي الِّتي مَضَت

    وعايَنتكُم إِنِّي إِذاً لَسَعيدُ

    If those nights that have passed should return,

    And I behold you, then I shall surely be happy.
