Neni Desem [English translation]

If I say nenni, will s/he will sleep?

I piled up roses upon him/her

Will my little one ever thrive?

Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni

Baby's crib is made from pine tree

It fell and rolled down from the rooftop

His/her father is coming from Damascus

Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni

I couldn't get through forests

I couldn't find my little one

I was not enough for her/him

Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni

I have washed my baby

Then put her/him in on the rose branch

Now I have lost my hope

Nenni, nenni my lamb, nenni
