My longing for the fatal moment of his languorous glance,

لهفي لفاتر لحظه الفتاك

1. My longing for the fatal moment of his languorous glance,
By which the perception of passion robbed me,

١. لهفي لفاتر لحظه الفتّاك
رشأ به سلب الهوى إدراكي

2. I set up the trap of his alluring eyes, and it caught me,
And for him I set up traps, but missed my snares,

٢. نصبت شراكُ لحاظه فاصابني
ولهُ نصبتُ فأخطأت أشراكي

3. He is the third of two moons, envied by others,
In him the simple one, the fourth orbit,

٣. هُو ثالثٌ القمرين يحسدُ غيرهُ
فيه البسيطة رابعُ الأفلاك

4. So if the young gazelle frolics, and if it bends down,
From it the slender figure, I see you, a bending branch,

٤. فإذا رنا الرّشا وإذا انثنى
منهُ القوام أراك غُصن أراك

5. It reveals from its rhyming smile, and for me
An eye pouring down tears weeps,

٥. يفترُّ عن منظوم مبسمه ولي
عينٌ بمنثور المدامع باك

6. Oh my love, his slender figure grieved you,
Stabbing with his spear-like figure and his piercing glance.

٦. يا مُهجتي أضناك رُمحُ قوامه
طعنا وسيفُ لحاظه بتّاك
