(English)
هه هه یا خالتنا یا خالتنا
روحي لجماعتنا جماعتنا
زیدي حلاوتنا حلاوتنا
کل الهله و هلّیه
و الطوگ (الطوق) و الترچیه (القرط)
نذر العلینا (الذی علینا) نوفي
و نسلم علی ا لبنیة
Hey! Hey! Our aunt, our aunt!
Go to our group, our group
Increase our sweets, our sweets
Welcome and welcome
And necklace and earrings
We fulfill our vow
And we salute the girl.

Hey! Hey! ya khalitna ya khalitna
Rouhi le jama'itna jama'itna
Zeedi halawitna halawitna
Kel-alhala wa al-halliah
Al-togh wa al-tarchiyah
Nedhr al-alina newafi
Wa nisallem al-binayah
