He shone like a moon, rising together with the full moon.
The moon and full moon rose together
So I said, “Which of the two is the beloved’s face?”
So I asked, which of the two is my beloved's face?
وأشْرَقاand both shone فيin ذوائبٍtresses ودُجىًand night-darkness
وأشْرَقا في ذوائبٍ ودُجىً
فزالَso vanished فيin العَيْنِthe eye فَرْقa difference بَيْنَهُماbetween the two
فزالَ في العَيْنِ فَرْق بَيْنَهُما
And both shone amid tresses and the darkness of night,
They shone through the darkness and gloom
So, to the eye, the difference between them vanished.
But in my eyes no difference could be traced
