1. I say, as the meadows of poppies have appeared
Colorfully adorned, none like them among the poppies
١. أقولُ وَقَد لاحَتْ رياضُ شقائقٍ
مُنَمّقةٍ ما مِثلُها في الشّقائقِ
2. The cheeks have lost their blush to the meadow’s redness
And the heart gained its blackness from every lover
٢. لَقَد سَلَبَ الرَّوضُ الخدودَ احمرارَها
وحازَ سويدا القلبِ مِن كُلِّ وامقِ
3. So all who are loved, journey on guarding your cheek
And teach your heart its blackness, O all who love!
٣. فيا كُل معشوقٍ صُنِ الخد سائراً
وَعَظَّ سُويدا القلبِ يا كُلَّ عاشقِ
