يا ليلُ هذا نهار

يا ليلُ هذا نهار

ما أنت يا ليل

ما أنت يا ليل

O night, this is day.

O night, you are like day

What are you, O night?

What are you, O night?

وجد بقلبي ثار

وجد بقلبي ثار

كأنه الصلّ

كأنه الصلّ

Passion flared up in my heart,

There is a rebellion in my heart

As though it were an asp.

As if it were dawn
