1. يا عنق الابريق من فضة

    وطلعة البدر بلا ريب

    O silver neck of the ewer,

    And countenance of the full moon, beyond doubt,

  2. ويا عيون الريم ريم الفلا

    ويا قوام الغصن الرطب

    And O eyes of the gazelle, the gazelle of the desert,

    And O stature of the supple bough:

  3. هبك ثجانبت واقصيتني

    ورمت جهار بالجفا سلبي

    Suppose you have kept aloof and cast me away,

    And openly sought to despoil me through coldness,

  4. ومن حمى قربك اخرجتني

    تقدر ان تخرج من قلبي

    And driven me from the sanctuary of nearness to you—

    Can you depart from my heart?
