وروضةٍ باكرتُها زائراً
واللّيلُand the night قدalready أزمعhad resolved للسَّيرِto depart
واللّيلُ قد أزمع للسَّيرِ
And a garden I came to early as a visitor,
In a garden I visited at dawn
while night had already resolved to depart.
As night was ready to depart
قبّلتُI kissed منof خيّريهاits wallflowers أنملاًfingertips
قبّلتُ من خيّريها أنملاً
لطيفةdelicate ماnot مسّهاtouched them غيريanyone other than me
لطيفة ما مسّها غيري
I kissed fingertips of its wallflowers,
I kissed a delicate petal
delicate, touched by no one but me.
That none had touched but I
فياso, oh لهاfor it فيin الحسنِbeauty منof روضةٍa garden
فيا لها في الحسنِ من روضةٍ

تصبّحُ الزّائر بالخيري
Oh, what a lovely garden it is,
What a lovely garden of beauty
greeting the visitor in the morning with wallflowers!
Where a visitor is greeted well
