Lyrics to Iraqi Song "Hel Leyla Helwa"

Greetings fellow oudis,

I am looking for the Arabic lyrics, plus transliteration and translation, if possible, for the Iraqi song, "Hel Leyla Helwa"
(هالليله حلوه;)

Here is one version on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHasAMLQByk

I have been unable to find anything other than a very brief English summary translation. "Alf shukran" in advance for any help you can give!

Thanks,
John

I think I have a transliteration... 'somewhere'.
I have to search at home this evening.

Thanks, Robert!

Here is the English summary translation I found:

Tonight is lovely; lovely and beautiful.
Welcome to you who was away.
My heart, because of your departure, has tasted all bitterness.
Welcome to you and to your companions.
My heart, before my eyes, embraces you.

Over and out,
John
