1. My heart was set ablaze when I recalled the abodes
And I was illuminated by the palm trees like fire
١. ريعَ قَلبي لَمّا ذَكَرتُ الدِيارا
وَتَنوَّرتُ بِالنُخَيلاتِ نارا
2. The possessor of whiteness has given me vitality with flashes
From her brightness, so I cannot show patience
٢. وَاِزدَهَيتَني ذاتُ السَنا بِبُروقٍ
مِن لَظاها فَما أُطيقُ اِصطِبارا
3. And the mind, the heart, increases in yearning
For her and the flashing of lightning from her I borrow
٣. وَالقَريحُ الفُؤادُ يَزدادُ لِلنا
رِ وَميضَ السَعيرِ مِنها اِستِعارا
