1. Many a night whose dark embrace
Stretches longer than my thoughts' reach
١. وَلَرُبَّ لَيْلٍ بِتُّ أذْرَعُ مَسْحَه
بِذِرَاعِ فِكْرِي فِي مَجَال تَوَسْوُسِي
2. And the moon beneath the sky that seems
Like an Indian mirror in the hands of one who peers
٢. وَالْبَدْر مِنْ تَحْتِ السَّمَاءِ كَأنَّهُ
مِرْآةُ هِنْدٍ فِي يَدَيْ مُتَفَرّسِ
