1. A yellow topaz was set
In a white camphor ring
١. ياقوتَةٌ صفراءُ قد رُكِّبَتْ
في خاتَمٍ أبْيَضَ كافُورِي
2. Two opposites were reconciled
In color of beloved yet abandoned
٢. ضِدّانِ قد أُلِّفَ مَعْنَاهُمَا
في لونِ مَعشُوقٍ ومهجُورِ
3. As if it were the yellow of a high sun
Upon a crescent completed in light
٣. كأنّها صُفْرَهُ شمسٍ عَلَتْ
علَى هِلالٍ تَمَّ في النُّورِ
