Your stature in your pink dress -

قدك في ملبسك الوردي

1. Your stature in your pink dress -
Is it a willow swaying amidst roses?

١. قدُّكَ في مَلْبَسِكَ الوَرْدي
أم آسَةٌ تَخْتالُ في وَرْدِ

2. Your happiest face above it -
Is it a moon gleaming with good fortune?

٢. ووَجْهُكَ الأسْعَدُ من فَوْقِه
أم قَمَرٌ قد لاحَ بالسَّعدِ

3. A gazelle - and where is the gazelle from its loss,
And coquetry, and swaying gait, and stature?

٣. ظَبْيٌ وأيْنَ الظَّبيُ من تِيْهِهِ
وغُنْجهِ والرِّدفِ والقَدِّ

4. It struts as it hides in a dress
As if it were woven from roses.

٤. يَخْتالُ إذ يَلْتاحُ في مَلْبَسٍ
كأنَّما حِيْكَ مِنَ الوَرْدِ

5. Yet there is no dye in it, but rather
The reflection of the radiance of that cheek.

٥. وليسَ صِبْغاً فِيهِ لكنَّهُ
عَكْسُ شُعاعِ ذلكَ الخَدِّ
