1. الشَمسُ تَخجَلُ مِن جمالِك

    فَتَغيبُ مُسرِعَةً لذلكْ

    The sun is abashed by your beauty,

    so it swiftly sets for that reason.

  2. وَالغَيثُ يَحيا أَن يُصو

    بَ لِما يَراهُ مِن نَوالِكْ

    And the rain is ashamed to fall

    because of what it sees of your bounty.

  3. وَالبَدرُ يَطلع ناقِصاً

    حَتّى يُتَمِّمَ مِن كَمالِكْ

    And the full moon rises incomplete,

    until it completes itself with your perfection.
