انا لي حبيب
I have a beloved
قفا ولا عاد جاني
That has taken off and never come back
ماني داران كيف اسيبة
I don't know how to let them go
انا لي حبيب
I have a beloved
راح عني ولا سأل بي
That has walked out on me, with no concern for my well-being1
سيبة على سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now2
وسيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
محبوب فلبي هجرني … يا ناس فين اشتكي به
The one my heart loves has deserted me... Whom do I address my complaint to, people?
قفا ولا عاد جاني … ماني دارا كيف سيبة
They have taken off and never come back... I don't know how to let them go
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
نسي الجميل الذي مر … أنسي بأني حبيبة
They've forgotten all that's happened between us... They've forgotten I'm the one they love
سمع كلام الشواني … ولا سبني طبيبة
They let the gossip-mongers sway their heart... Or maybe they think I'm their doctor
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
حبوب فلبي هجرني … يا ناس فين اشتكي به
The one my heart loves has deserted me... Whom do I address my complaint to, people?

سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
وأبوي قهر قلبي … قلبي احترق من لهيبة
O Father3, he's shattered my heart...My heart is burning and consuming itself
والنوم ماشي يجيني … يا ناس أشتهي المصيبة
Sleep is eluding me...People, I'm wishing a catastrophe would befall me!4
والنوم ما عاد يجيني … يا ناس أشتهي المصيبة
Sleep has been eluding me...People, I'm wishing a catastrophe would befall me!
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
محبوب فلبي هجرني … يا ناس وين اشتكي به
The one my heart loves has deserted me... Whom do I address my complaint to, people?

They have taken off and never come back... I don't know how to let them go
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
يا اسمر اللون وينك … فين الليالي العجيبة
O swarthy one, where have you gone off to?... Where have our wondrous nights gone off to?
شي عاد تذكر حبيبك … ولا ناويت به تسيبة
Do you not think of your beloved any more?... Or have you made up your mind to leave them behind?
سيبة على الله سيبة
I wash my hands of it, it's in God's hands now
محبوب فلبي هجرني … يا ناس وين اشتكي به
