‘Ala Bāb Al-SīmāAt the cinema door,
Tadhakkartī QadīmahMy old ticket stub.
Wa Ma‘āyā ḤikāyahAnd I’ve got a story,
Nifsī AghayyarhāI wish I could change it.
Wa Anā Meen YidīnīAnd who would give me,
Furṣah Tikhallīnīa chance that would let me,
Adkhul Law Marrahgo in just one more time,
Wa A‘īshhā Bi-Tafāṣīlhāand live it in all its detail?
Īdī Fī ĪdīhāMy hand in her hand,
Wa ‘Inayyā ‘Alayhāand my eyes are on her.
Sāmi‘ Ḍiḥkit-hāI can hear her laughter,
Wa Iḥnā Bi-Nitfarrajwhile we’re watching.
Khilṣat ḤikāyitnāOur story is over,
Wa Al-Dunyā Khaditnāand life took us away.
Lā Anā ‘Ārif Ab‘adI don’t know how to move on,
Wa Lā Qādir Aqarraband I can’t get any closer.
Īdī Fī ĪdīhāMy hand in her hand,
Wa ‘Inayyā ‘Alayhāand my eyes are on her.
Sāmi‘ Ḍiḥkit-hāI can hear her laughter,
Wa Iḥnā Bi-Nitfarrajwhile we’re watching.
Khilṣat ḤikāyitnāOur story is over,
Wa Al-Dunyā Khaditnāand life took us away.

‘Ala Bāb Al-Sīmāat the cinema door.
