لا رسايل يات ولا منج خبر
No messages came, nor news from you.
شلي جرا يا دوا الروح و العين
What’s happened to you? O, my spiritual medicine, What’s happened to you? O, my eye remedy.
صارلي زمان اتريا الصبر
For a long time ago, I waited with patience.
اسكت و اقول لازم تحنين
I keep silent and say she will come with her yearning soon.
متعود اشوفج ما اتعودت الهجر
I used to see you, and I never used to get desertion from you.
لو من رسايل اشواقج تكتبين
With your longing and feeling letters, I was living.
اليوم صار عندي اطول من شهر
The day becomes more extended than a month,
وانتي ادرا بعذابي و تعرفين
And you realise my torment, and you know it.
عايش على ذكراج عذبني السهر
I live and tormented with our memories by staying up late.
اتخيلج طيف فليلي تمرين
I imagine your shadow passing in my night.
انتي يا عمري ليلي و الفجر
You are my life, my night and my dawn.
كل ما ذكرتج تدمع العين
Each time I remember you, my eyes start tears.
