With you, hunting became auspicious for kings

بك قد تيمنت الملوك الصيد

1. With you, hunting became auspicious for kings
As wherever you went, the sought became easy

١. بِكَ قَدْ تَيمَّنتِ المُلوكُ الصِّيدُ
إذْ حَيْثُ سِرْتَ تَيسَّرَ المَقْصُودُ

2. The whiteness of snow hides paths from you
Yet the dark nights sufficed as guides

٢. يُخفي بَياضُ الثَّلْجِ عَنْكَ مَسَالِكاً
كَانَتْ كُفايتَها اللَّيالي السُّودُ

3. And your forehead shone in the gloom as though
In it columns of dawn's cleavage stood

٣. وَبَدا جَبِينُكَ في الدُّجَى فَكأَنَّهُ
فِيهنَّ مِن فَلَقِ الصَّباحِ عَمُودُ

4. Between valleys and towering heights
For horses, a descending and ascending road

٤. مَا بَيْنَ أَوْدِيَةٍ وَبَيْنَ شَوَاهِقٍ
لِلخيلِ مُنْحدِرٌ بِها وَصُعُودُ

5. Their waterskins and saddles swore
None ever rode a back like yours

٥. قَدْ أَقْسَمَتْ أَكُوَارُها وَسُرُوجُها
لا سَارَ في ظَهْرٍ بِمثْلِكَ عُودُ
