1. I met a garden of gentility in her
I kissed all her beauty that's loved
١. قَابلْتُ مِنها رَوْضَةً أَدبيَّةً
قَبَّلْتُ مِنها كُلَّ حُسْنٍ يُعْشَقُ
2. And I escaped with the rhymes surrounding me
From her sea as the house around me was a trench
٢. وَفَررْتُ بالنَّظمِ المُحِيطِ بِجانبي
مِن لُجِّها والبيتُ حَوْلي خَنْدقُ
