Arabic term

محرمتي

Arabic to English Art/Literary Folklore Folk Songs
يا أحمد يا شربيتلي
يا نص محرمتي
املأ وشيلني
وأوعى تميلني
يروح الخبر لأمي
أمي بتعذرني
وأبويا يدبحني
والبقرة تنطحني
يا أحمد يا مسكوفي
يا نص ملكوفي
املأ وشيلني
وأوعى تميلني
حلقي يقع مني
أمي تجنني

my handkerchief

The word may also be a derivative of محرم and in this case the translation of محرمتي becomes "my consnguine"
