I LOVE YOU is one of Charbel Baini's books translated from Arabic into English with introduction by Dr. Mostapha Helwe

Yes, I love her.


I love her... Yes, yes, I love her.

For my dwelling, my resting place, is in her heart.

Beautiful as a rose, like a jasmine blossom.

And the secret is that her flaws are hidden.

If she is far away, if she becomes like a cloud,

Like a spring, I am captive, watering her path.

I kissed her until she was quenched, my beloved.

I hid a thousand kisses in her bosom.

The nights without her are endless.

The sweetest nights I lived were in her presence.

No, my sweet one, you will not fear, 

For our love is blessed, sacred by her Lord.
