Sands of oud

(ahhhh) (ya layl

ya ayn)

Musafer fi tariqi wal mada baeed

As'al anki al-najmat fee kulli maseed Al-shawk fil darbi wal hulu haseed

Wa qalbi yantaziruhu al-rabee' al-jadeed

Idha nadata al-riyah

Tashfi kull al-jirah

Wa nastadeefu al-sabah

Ya habibi ya dunya

Noor al-ayoon

Fi qurbika al-hayat

Wa kulla ma yakoon

Katabtu ismaka 'ala waraq al-shajar

Wa rasantuhu 'ala rimal al-bahr

Fakaifa ansaki wa anta al-qamar

Aladi yudeeru layliya al-sahar

Ya habibi ya dunya

Noor al-ayoon

Fi qurbika al-hayat

Wa kulla ma yakoon

Ya layli

Ya ayn

Habibi
