1. Oh beauty of a river as flowers are scattered
Floating upon it, though its mouth smiles
١. يا حُسنَ نَهرٍ وَالزّهور تَناثَرَت
تَطفو عَلَيهِ وَإِنّ فاهُ باسِمُ
2. When it was wed to the morning breeze happily
It scattered upon it from the branches its pearls
٢. لَمّا تَزَوَّجَ بِالصَّبا فَرحاً بِهِ
نَثَرَت عَلَيهِ مِنَ الغُصونِ دَراهِمُ
