[Verse 1]
يا غزال هل سحرت الذيب
Ya ghazal hal saharti al-dheeb
Oh gazelle, have you charmed the wolf?
لاما تحيد عن قيادة قطيع الحيد
Lama tahid 'an qiyadat qati' al-hayd
He doesn't stray from leading the herd of the mountain
والى حدك انقاد
Wa ila haddik inqad
And to your side, he was led
[Chorus]
ما رماة البنادق اقدرت له تصيد
Ma rumat al-banadiq aqdarat lahu tasid
The riflemen could not hunt him
وانت باارماش نظراتك له أصتدات وانصاد
Wa anti bi-armash nazratik lahu astadat wa ansad
But you, with the blink of your glances, hunted and caught him
[Verse 2]
ما قبيلي مشيخ اقدر ولا حكم سيد
Ma qabili mushayakh aqdar wala hukm sayyid
No tribal chief or ruling lord could
ف قضبان غياهيبك بالاغلال والاصفاد
Fi qudban ghayahibik bil-aghlal wal-asfad
In the bars of your darkness, with shackles and chains
ياسره لان هو فالحريه سيد الأسياد
Ya'siruhu li-annahu fil-hurriya sayyid al-asyad
Imprison him, for he is the lord of lords in freedom
[Chorus]
وانت في حبك القيته مكبل مقيد
Wa anti fi hubbik alqaytuhu mukabbal muqayyad
And in your love, I found him shackled and bound

فك اسري كما اسر الذيب لهم عيد الأعياد
Fakk asri kama asr al-dheeb lahum 'id al-a'yad
Release my captivity, just as the wolf's captivity is a feast for them
[Verse 3]
من عذابي بنار الشوق وايش باتفيد
Min 'adhabi bi-nar al-shawq wa aysh batfeed
What good will my suffering from the fire of longing do?
شي لعينه دمع والغيد الاغيد
Shay li-'aynih dam' wal-gheyd al-aghayd
Something for his eye, tears, and the graceful beauty
تحاتق الله في عاشق على جمر وقاد
Tahaqquq Allah fi 'ashiq 'ala jamr waqqad
Fear God for a lover on burning embers
[Chorus]
كم لقلبي اسير الحب عقدين وازيد
Kam li-qalbi aseer al-hubb 'iqdayn wa azeed
How long has my heart been a prisoner of love, two decades and more?
مثل طير في قفص حزنه لسجانه إسعاد
Mithl tayr fi qafas huznuhu li-sajjanih is'ad
Like a bird in a cage, its sorrow is a joy to its jailer
[Verse 4]
طير ماسب اهات بكاه عنها غنا عذب وإنشاد
Tayr ma sabb ahhat bukahu 'anha ghana 'adhb wa inshad
A bird whose sighs and cries became sweet songs and chants
Lines explained
“يا غزال هل سحرت الذيب”
Ya ghazal hal saharti al-dheeb
Oh gazelle, have you charmed the wolf?
The singer compares himself to a powerful wolf, a symbol of strength and freedom, now captivated by the 'gazelle' (his beloved).
“وانت باارماش نظراتك له أصتدات وانصاد”
Wa anti bi-armash nazratik lahu astadat wa ansad
But you, with the blink of your glances, hunted and caught him
This line highlights the gazelle's unique power; while hunters with rifles couldn't catch the wolf, her mere glances were enough to ensnare him, emphasizing the irresistible nature of her beauty.
“فك اسري كما اسر الذيب لهم عيد الأعياد”
Fakk asri kama asr al-dheeb lahum 'id al-a'yad
Release my captivity, just as the wolf's captivity is a feast for them
The plea to be released from captivity is intensified by the image of foxes (representing rivals or enemies) rejoicing in the wolf's (singer's) downfall, making his suffering a public spectacle.
