1. He appeared from the bath as red as pomegranate blossoms
I said "Welcome!" when I looked upon him
١. وبدا من الحمّام وهو كأحمر اليا
قُوت قُلتُ وقد نظرتُ إليه
2. If only I were his loincloth wrapped around his waist
Or if I were his shirt draped over him
٢. يا ليتني كنتُ الإزار لخصره
أو ليتني كنتُ القميص عليه
