And I come from a family of elites, in the midst of my people, oh folks, a miracle.

سبحان ما زاد حسنه ورسمه ده الناس بيتغنوا باسمه

Glory be to what increased his beauty and his form, people sing in his name.

ورد وطرح قبل مواسمه من غير لا زرع ولا سقاية

يا أبويا على جماله رواية شربات عنب يروي رواية

Oh my father, there's a tale of his beauty, a sip of grapes tells the story.

عطشانة جابني على عماية ومشيت وقلبي يا ناس خالي

Thirsty, he led me into darkness, and I walked, my heart, oh folks, is empty.

مع إن توبه ماهوش توبي طالع في قدري ومكتوبي

Even though my repentance isn't truly mine, it's written in my fate.

وعشان ما سابني ورمى طوبي بشكيه لناسه وناس خالي

And since he didn't leave me and tossed my love aside, I complain to my people and my kin.

من تقله أنا جزيت نابي بتسوى منه على جنابي

When you say I'm worth the trouble, more than that, I've got my own battles.

يظهر ما يعرفش جنابي ولا يعرف إني ب ١٠٠ عيلة

Looks like he doesn't know my struggles, nor that I stand with a hundred families.

كل البلاد هنا دعياني، بنت الأصول عين أعياني

All the countries here are calling me, daughter of nobility, you caught my eye.

وده صابني همه وأعياني وعيلت همه أنا ١٠٠ عيلة

وعشان ما سابني ورمى طوبي بشكيه لناسه وناس خالي، خالي
