يا خسارتك يا قلبي (في البكا والضنا والأسى)
Oh, your loss, my heart (in the weeping, the lament, and the sorrow)
A khsaratak ya qalbi (fi al-baka wal-dhuna wal-asa)
حبيتهم يا قبلي (كل ده راح كده واتنسى)
I loved them, oh my former ones (all that has passed away and been forgotten)
Habbeituhum ya qabli (kul dah rah kida wa etensa)
يا خسارتك يا قلبي في الجرح وفي الأسى
Oh, your loss, my heart, in the wound and in the sorrow
Ya khsaratak ya qalbi fi al-jarh wa fi al-asa
يا خسارة حناني والحب اللي اتنسى
Oh, what a pity for my tenderness and the love that was forgotten
Ya khsara hanani wal-hob elli etensa
يا خسارتك يا قلبي في الجرح وفي الأسى
Oh, your loss, my heart, in the wound and in the sorrow
Ya khsaratak ya qalbi fi al-jarh wa fi al-asa
يا خسارة حناني والحب اللي اتنسى
Oh, what a pity for my tenderness and the love that was forgotten
Ya khsara hanani wal-hob elli etensa
اللي معاهم روحنا وجينا باعوا الشوق ببلاش
Those who held our soul—when we arrived, they sold our longing for nothing
Elli ma’ahum roohna w geena ba’u al-shawq bibalash
ضحكناهم ضحكوا علينا وليه ماتعلمناش
We made them laugh, they laughed at us, and why didn’t they teach us?
Dahaknahum dahaku ‘alina w leh ma ta’alamnash
