How much between the two flashes of lightning are unveiled,

كم بين دوح الأبرقين عوارياً

1. How much between the two flashes of lightning are unveiled,
With branches being clothed in trailing robes.

١. كم بين دوح الأبرقينِ عوارياً
منهم غصوناً بالذوائب تورق

2. From every blink of their eyelids pours out,
Swords that glisten for a moment with the glow of firebrands.

لحظاً ومن سمر الذوابل أرشق

3. And I stood in its spring, while the palm of its prosperity
Was weaving a gown of light in which it shone radiantly.

في نسج حلَّة نورها تتألق

4. In vain the threads of rain keep sending down the clouds,
And the sleeves of plants keep unfolding continuously.

٤. وسدى خيوط المزن يرسلها الحيا
أبداً وأكمام النبات تفتق

5. A plantation of delights, whose breeze blew gently,
Ripping the garments of anemones violently.

٥. غرسٌ من اللذات غارَ نسيمهُ
فهفا لأثواب الشقيق يشقق

6. The iris dances, and the doves are melodies,
Singing, while the edges of the brook clap rhythmically.

٦. والبانث يرقص والحمام هواتفٌ
تشدو وأطرافُ الغدير تصفّيق

7. And the flashes through the clouds like the banner
Of the mighty King, its brilliance shines luminously.

٧. والومضُ من خلل السحاب كراية
الملكِ العزيز سناؤها يتألق
