1. تعلَّقته سكرانَ من خمرة الصبا

    به غفلةٌ عن لوعتي ولهيبي

    I fell in love with him, drunk on the wine of youth;

    He is heedless of my anguish and my flame.

  2. وشارَكني في حبه كلُّ أهيفٍ

    يشارِكُهُ في مُهجَتي بنَصيبِ

    And every slender-waisted youth joined me in loving him,

    Sharing with him a portion of my heart.

  3. فلا تُلزِموني غيرةً ما عَرِفتُها

    فإنَّ حَبيبي من أحبَّ حبيبي

    So do not impose on me a jealousy I have never known,

    For my beloved is whoever loves my beloved.
