1. خُرَّمَةٌ كَهامَةِ الطاوُوسَه

    دارِيَ مِن بَهجَتِها مَأنوسَه

    A khurramah flower, like a peahen's head.

    My home is cheered by its beauty.

  2. وَالعَينُ في فَنائِها مَحبوسَه

    مَحفوظَةٌ تَحسَبُها مَحروسَه

    And the eye is held captive in its courtyard.

    Kept safe, you would think it guarded.

  3. تُعجِبُني مَنظورَةٌ مَلموسَه

    مَرفوعَةُ الهامَةِ أَو مَنكوسَه

    It delights me, seen and touched,

    With its head raised or turned downward.

  4. ياقوتَةٌ لَكِنَّها مَغروسَه

    في زَهَرٍ كَالشُعَلِ المَقبوسَه

    A ruby, yet planted

    Among blossoms like kindled flames,

  5. كَحُلَلٍ أَلوانُها مَلبوسَه

    Like robes whose colors are worn.
