1. You unveiled like the moon, illuminating the night
With the love of beauty you displayed
١. كَشَفْتِ كِمَامَةً فَأَنَرْتِ لَيْلًا
بِمَا أَبْدَيْتِ مِنْ حَبِّ اللَّآلِي
2. Your smile that we longed for
We saw it, though it was but a dream
٢. وبَسْمَتُكِ الَّتِي اشْتَقْنَا إِلَيْها
رَأَيْناها ، وَكانَتْ في الخَيالِ
3. Your lips were forbidden to approach
Today they are lawful to kiss
٣. إِلَى شَفَتَيْكِ كانَ القُرْبُ حَظْرًا
فَصارَ اليَوْمَ فِي حُكْمِ الحَلالِ
4. What stories has your mouth concealed
Reveal what's hidden throughout the nights
٤. وهذا الثَّغْرُ كَمْ أَخْفَى حَكايَا
فَهاتِي ما خَبَأْتِ مَدَى اللَّيَالِي
5. Repay the debt to lovers for what
You promised but didn't fulfill of union
٥. ورُدِّي الدَّيْنَ لِلْعُشَّاقِ مِمَّا
وَعَدْتِ وَما وفَيْتِ مِنَ الوِصَالِ !
6. Both faces, of veil and reveal
Yours attains the peak of beauty
٦. عَلَى الوَجْهَيْنِ مِنْ سَتْرٍ وكَشْفٍ
لِوَجْهِكِ يَرْتَقِي أَوْجُ الجَمال ِ
7. Had perfection been meant for a face
God would have granted only yours perfection
٧. ولَوْ شاءَ الكَمالَ لِوَجْهِ خَلْقٍ
لَخَصَّ اللهُ وَجْهَكِ بِالكَمَالِ !
