Her silk is more delicate than love,
More delicate than passion is her cheek,
and more delicate than the body of air.
And more delicate than ether is her shape,

A maiden whom the rain has clothed
Modesty has clothed her with life's garment,
in a robe of modesty of its own weaving.
Woven by its own hands as its raiment.
