[Intro]
يا قلبٍ يَصْدحُ بالحبِّ، رحّبْ بروحِه
[Verse 1]
lā taṣmutī wa-takallamī, wa-lita-s-ā-ilīna
‘an ma‘ānī al-ḥubbi, ya qamarُ al-laylُ bihi
al-ḥubbu shahdٌ fī famī, yaṣallu yaṣkunُ dākhilī
mutala’li’anِ kal-anjumi, mutadaffiqanِ kal-nahrِ
yajrī fī damī, fabidūnihi tatram–malāyāmy
wa-yaṣūlu safelyٍ sayfu al-mujrimِ
al-ḥubbu yabqā khālidānِ, kal-rūḥِ yahtifu lil-ḥayātِ
[Chorus]
afrḥī wa-tabassamī, al-ḥubbu yabqa fī al-wuǧūdِ
likulli wajhin jāmiِ, huwa lil-ḍa‘īfi muwasiyyanِ
wal-lil-ṣiġār al-yatamِ, huwa lil-ḥazīnِ iżā shakā
lil-rāḥiliīn ‘an al-diyāri, wal-faqīri al-ma‘dami
laki anti ya qamarُ yā t-ṭaghru al-mutabassimِ
[Verse 2]
huwa lil-sadīqِ wal-lil-‘alīlِ, lijismi al-muta’allimِ
lifafifah fī khidr-hā tashkū al-zamāna al-mu’ṭimِ
huwa balsamٌ lil-ʾarḍِ li-riʾsiha al-mutawarrimِ
sāyazallu laḥnan khālidānِ fī kulli qālbin muġramِ
khūḍī ghimār al-ḥubbi wa-aġraqī fī nuri-hِ
aw nārِhi.. lan-tandamī.
[Bridge]
ḥubbun yablusamُ lil-ʾarḍِ w-al-rāḥilīnَ a’n al-diyārِ
wa-l-faqīr al-ma‘damِ yantashirُ bi‑fāḥatinِ
[Chorus]
afrḥī wa-tabassamī, al-ḥubbu yabqa fī al-wuǧūdِ
likulli wajhin jāmiِ, huwa lil-ḍa‘īfi muwasiyyanِ
wal-lil-ṣiġār al-yatamِ, huwa lil-ḥazīnِ izā shakā
lil-rāḥiliīn ‘an al-diyārِ, wal-faqīri al-ma‘dami
laki anti ya qamarُ yā t-ṭaghru al-mutabassimِ
huwa lil-ṣadīqِ walil-‘alīlِ, lijismi al-muta’allimِ
li-‘afīfah fī khidr-hā tashkū al-zamāna al-mu’ṭimِ
[Outro]
ḥubbun yablusu al-ʾarḍِ li-r’asiha al-mutawarrimِ
sāyabqā laḥnun khālidānِ fī kulli qalbِ muġramِ
qad yabqa al-wuṣūl lil-uḥibba bi-ḥabbِ al-samarِ
