Ah, how lovely the visitor among visitors!
How welcome is the visitor from visiting
A sun that appeared in the camel saddle’s orbit,
A sun appeared in the sphere of planets

Walking in green and in red,
In green she walks, and in red
Like a branch amid leaves and blossoms.
Like a branch in leaves and blossoms

A maiden, just in her judgment,
A damsel making justice in her rule
Yet her waist weeps from oppression.
And her waist crying from tyranny

I overstepped my bounds in loving her, and have not
I raced my steed in my love for her, and
Ceased to overstep my bounds in love.
If I stumbled, I raced again in love
