1. O Lord of a blessed, generous shrine
His night garb trails around him
١. يَا رُبَّ زَوْرٍ مُنْعِمٍ مزَارُهُ
يَلْحَفُهُ مِنْ لَيْلِهِ إزارُهُ
2. Gladden me with his gift of a necklace
And the beauty of a rosy cheek
٢. بَشَّرَبِي بِبَذْلِهِ زُنَّارُهُ
وَحُسْنُ خَدٍّ نَصَعَ احْمِرارُهُ
3. He shines with reddishness
From it appears a moon, his blossoms
٣. يُفيتُ بِالْحُمْرَة جُلّنارُهُ
يُطْلِعُ مِنْها قَمْراً أَزْرَارُهُ
4. He apologized for the defect in his cheek
So he hastened the term to me in his home
٤. عَذِّرَ فِي عارِضِهِ عِذارهُ
فَأَعْجَلَ المُهْلَةَ لِي بِدارُهُ
5. A steed ran and left no trace of dust
To be taken from afar in proximity is his vengeance
٥. جَرْيَ جَوَاد لَمْ يُخْفَ عِثارُهُ
يُؤْخَذُ مِنْ بُعْدِ بِقُرْبٍ ثارُهُ
6. It was not a running that left no dust swirling
٦. لا كانَ جَرْيٌ لَمْ يُثَرْ غُبارُهُ
