Mother, mother, you of all the most loving! For nine months you held me, pregnant with me, your agony to bring me to life, and did I make it easy to raise me - your efforts were in vain - oh! Mother! How often, how often, you were cold that I was warm, how often were you hungry that I was fed, and all the socks that you would darn - all of these things - bereft of me! Mother! Whatever I may do, not enough to repay you, only God can give your reward. May I be kept in the grace of your forgiveness, and your life may He prolong and protect.

لما بدا يتثنى حبي جماله فتنا أمر ما بلحظة أسرنا غصن ثنى حين مال وعدي ويا حيرتي مل الرحيم شكوتي في الحب من لوعتي إلا مليك الجمال أمان أمان أمان أمان As she appeared, her pace oh so proud, my love seduced me with her beauty. Oh! How the look in her eyes enslaved us! She is like the branch that captivates as it moves. Will she respond mercifully to my complaint? Who can understand the pain inflicted by this love, but the beauty queen?
