أَخرَجَهُ الحَمّامُ كَالفِضَّه

أَخرَجَهُ الحَمّامُ كَالفِضَّه

يَحسُدُ مِنهُ بَعضُهُ بَعضَه

يَحسُدُ مِنهُ بَعضُهُ بَعضَه

The bathhouse brought him forth like silver,

The bathhouse brought him out like silver;

each part of him envying every other;

One part of him envies another.

كَأَنَّما الماءُ عَلى جِسمِهِ

كَأَنَّما الماءُ عَلى جِسمِهِ

طَلٌّ عَلى سَوسَنَةٍ غَضَّه

طَلٌّ عَلى سَوسَنَةٍ غَضَّه

as though the water upon his body

As though the water on his body

were dew upon a fresh, tender lily.

Were dew upon a tender lily.
