1. يا من بغرته الهلال أما ترى

    قمر السماء وقد بدا في المشرقِ

    O you whose brow bears the crescent, do you not see

    The moon of heaven, which has appeared in the east,

  2. كخريدةٍ نظرت إلى إلفٍ لها

    فتلثَّمت خجلاً بكم أزرقِ

    Like a maiden who looked upon her beloved,

    Then veiled her face in shyness with a blue sleeve?
