On high annaya cloister
Saint sharbel lit his lampion
Exalt every chorister
With love and with devotion 
O saint charbel for us pray

O monk up on a hillside
In your hermitage praying
And from the redeemer's side
Love and purity drawing
O saint sharbel for us pray

This earth you loved so dearly
Labored, planted and watered
With your sweat and blood amply
With roses now is scented
O saint sharbel for us pray

O perfect to each brother
Molded in pure charity
Let us all press together
In candid fraternity
O saint sharbel for us pray

A saint, for god totally
Who all the world did amaze
Provide for your land wholly
Saint who among us was raised
O saint sharbel for us pray

The cedar of lebanon
Calls saint sharbel and mary
Your eyes keep forever on
Lebanon's mount and prairie
O saint sharbel for us pray

In bka'kafra, still a child
You loved to be secluded
And prayed to grow undefiled
Holy, pure and good-minded
O saint sharbel for us pray

Day by day with host and wine
You meet god in holy mass
Asking, pleading the divine
Blessings for us you amass
O saint sharbel for us pray

To sharbel we came pilgrims
To gain from his shrine blessing
As we proceed singing hymns
Graces from his heart seeking
O saint sharbel for us pray

Saint sharbel, from your retreat
Look upon your church wholly
Your sanctity we entreat
Her heart fill with christ solely
O saint sharbel for us pray

A saint, for god totally
Who all the world did amaze
Provide for your land wholly
Saint who among us was raised
O saint sharbel for us pray
