1. My heart inclined to a morning visitor
Whose hair is soft like the people of Sabur
١. صادَ قَلبي طَرفٍ سَحورِ
أَصهَبُ الشَعرِ مِن بَني سابورِ
2. He sways like a bending bough
Shaking his shoulders over dusty ground
٢. يَتَثَنّى كَأَنَهُ غُصنُ بانٍ
هَزَّ عِطفَيهِ في ثَرىً مَمطورِ
3. As if the flowers on his cheek
Were saffron poured on camphor
٣. وَكَأَنَّ العِذارَ في الخَدِّ مِنهُ
زَعفَرانٌ غَضَّق عَلى كافورِ
