Lyrics

يا من شمس المحاسن بوجهك ساطع عبرة
يا من شمس المحاسن بوجهك ساطع عبرة
والغصر من ميلة يشكن هوى عذرا
والغصر من ميلة يشكن هوى عذرا
يا حبيبي
يا حبيبي
ارحم فوادي الذي بهواك يا مع الشرف
يا حبيبي خفان كطير في جنح مثل الشرف
يا سيداً حاس فوق الكمال الشرف
مثلك تجيب النساء ولا تمتع ذرا
يا حبيبي
مثلك تجيب النساء ولا تمتع ذرا
