لي شوق اليك لا يتناهى

لي شوق اليك لا يتناهى

وشجون قد جاوزت منتهاها

وشجون قد جاوزت منتهاها

My longing for you knows no end,

My longing for you knows no end,

And sorrows have exceeded their utmost bounds.

And sorrows beyond measure.

يا ابن عمي تفديك من كل سوء

يا ابن عمي تفديك من كل سوء

نفس مضنى ما في يديه سواها

نفس مضنى ما في يديه سواها

O my cousin, may you be ransomed from every harm

My cousin, I'd give my soul to protect you,

By the soul of one worn down, who has nothing else in his hands.

This weary soul, it's all I have.
