يا هلا يا زينة الأقدار

Ya hala ya zinat al-aqdar

Oh welcome, fairest of destinies

يا هلا يا نور عيني يا ضيا وسط الظلام

Ya hala ya noor 'ayni ya diya wasat al-zalam

Oh welcome, light of my eyes, oh brightness in the darkness

يا غلا يسكن فؤادي يا هوى روحي والغرام

Ya ghala yaskun fu'adi ya hawa roohi wal-gharam

Oh dearest one who dwells in my heart, oh air of my soul and love

يا هلا يا وردةٍ فاحت بعطرٍ وانتشار

Ya hala ya wardatun fahat bi-'itrin wa intishar

Oh welcome, oh rose that bloomed with fragrance and spread

يا حلا الدنيا بعيوني يا جميلة يا قمر

Ya hala al-dunya bi-'uyooni ya jameelah ya qamar

Oh sweetness of the world in my eyes, oh beautiful one, oh moon

اسمك اللي لا ذكرته يرتوي قلبي حنين

Ismuk alladhi la dhakartuhu yartawi qalbi haneen

Your name, when I remember it, my heart is quenched with longing

وأبتسم لو مرّ طيفك في خيالي كل حين

Wa abtasim law marra tayfuk fi khayali kulli heen

And I smile whenever your image passes through my imagination

يا هلا يا أجمل أحلامي ويا سرّ الشعور

Ya hala ya ajmal ahlamy wa ya sirr al-shu'oor

Oh welcome, oh most beautiful of my dreams, and secret of feelings

يا دفى قلبي إذا بردت لياليّ والدهور

Ya dafa qalbi idha baradat layaliyya wal-duhoor

Oh warmth of my heart when my nights and ages grow cold

لك مكانٍ وسط قلبي ما وصل له أي بشر

Lak makanun wasat qalbi ma wasala lahu ayy bashar

You have a place within my heart that no other human has reached

ولك عهدٍ ما تغيّره الليالي أو قدر

Wa lak 'ahdun ma tughayyiruhu al-layali aw qadar

And you have a promise that neither nights nor fate will change

إن تبسّمتِ أزهر العمر وانجلى همّي وطار

In tabassamti azhara al-'umru wanjala hammi wa tar

If you smile, life blossoms, and my worries vanish and fly away

وإن تغيبين لحظةٍ قلبي تولّع وانتظار

Wa in tagheebin lahzatun qalbi tawalla'a wantizar

And if you are absent for a moment, my heart becomes inflamed with waiting

يا هلا يا عزّ عمري يا حبيبة هالعمر

Ya hala ya 'izz 'umri ya habeebat hadha al-'umr

Oh welcome, oh pride of my life, oh beloved of this lifetime

حبّك بقلبي قصيدة ما تغيّرها السنين والدهر

Hubbuk biqalbi qaseedatun ma tughayyiruha al-sineen wal-dahr

Your love in my heart is a poem that neither years nor time will change

يا هلا يا كل فرحتي يا نصيبي والقرار

Ya hala ya kulli farhati ya naseebi wal-qarar

Oh welcome, oh all my joy, oh my destiny and decision

تبقين أغلى من سكن قلبي إلى آخر نهار ❤️

You remain the dearest one who has dwelt in my heart until the last day ❤️
