1. The glance has wounded my heart with scars,
A moon appeared amidst the black tresses.
١. جرح القلبَ باللحاظ جراحا
قمرٌ في الغلائل السود لاحا
2. If you saw it when it appeared, you would say, “A full moon,”
And a wand, playing with the breeze.
٢. لو تراه إذا بدا قلتَ بدرٌ
وقضيب مُلاعِبٌ أرياحا
3. Above a cheek, adorned with a beauty mark,
Two eyelashes have taken up arms against it.
٣. وبصدغٍ معقربٍ فوق خدٍّ
صاحت الملقلتانِ منه السلاحا
