1. Her figure rose to veil the sun's disc from my sight
She was hidden from my gaze and from others' gazes
١. قامَت لِتَحجُبَ قُرصَ الشَمسِ قامَتُها
عَن ناظِري حُجِبَت عَن ناظِرِ الغيرِ
2. Surely, by your life, she is a moon
Does any but the moon's orb veil the sun?
٢. عِلماً لَعَمرُكَ مِنها أَنَّها قَمَرٌ
هَل تَحجُبُ الشَمسَ إِلّا صَفحَةُ القَمَرِ
