1. With my soul he torments me, his love
Thus is it, and I have no hope but him
١. بِنَفسي مَن يُعَذِّبُني هَواهُ
كَذاكَ وَلَيسَ لي أَمَلٌ سِواهُ
2. He wanders among the servants with a beautiful face
And hair that flows long over his nape
٢. يَتيهِ عَلى العِبادِ بِحُسنِ وَجهٍ
وَشَعرٍ قَد أُطيلَ عَلى قَفاهُ
3. And temples that my prince arranges
Over a cheek that glitters and its moles
٣. وَأَصداغٍ يُرَصِّفُها أَميري
عَلى خَدٍّ تَلَألَأُ وَجنَتاهُ
4. God created him of gold and pearls
And perfected his creation when He created him
٤. بَراهُ اللَهُ مِن ذَهَبٍ وَدُرٍّ
فَأَحسَنَ خَلقَهُ لَمّا بَراهُ
5. So when He destined him a well-proportioned man
He made the houris of Paradise envy him
٥. فَلَمّا خَطَّهُ بَشَراً سَوِيّاً
حَذا حورَ الجِنانِ عَلى حِذاهُ
