1. And on a day pale of color we strolled
With a sun veiled by clouds that rolled
١. وَيَوْمٍ فَاخِتِيِّ اللَّوْنِ خِلْنَا
بِهِ شَمْسًا تَجَلْبَبَتِ السَّحَابَا
2. Like a maiden wary of life's sentinel
Who, fearing his gaze, drew down her veil
٢. كَسَافِرَةِ الْحَيَا جَاهَا رَقِيبٌ
فَخَافَتْهُ فَأرْسَلَتِ النِّقَابَا
