The crescent of your servant's eye, my lord,
The crescent is the eye of the servant, my master
Is like an eyebrow; describing it is my duty.
Like an eyebrow that is duty-bound to describe it

No wonder: the chief judge of humankind
No wonder, O judge of the judges of the world
Has arrived, with a chamberlain in his service.
It has fulfilled its duty, while being your eyebrow
