He passed by us in a green tunic,
He passed by in a green meadow
His temple-locks curled into loops with ambergris.
Adorning his temples with ambergris
قَدْindeed كَتَبَhad written الحُسْنُbeauty عَلىon خَدِّهِhis cheek
قَدْ كَتَبَ الحُسْنُ عَلى خَدِّهِ
ياO أَعْيُنَeyes الناسِthe people قِفيstop وانْظُريand look
يا أَعْيُنَ الناسِ قِفي وانْظُري
Beauty had written on his cheek:
Beauty itself has written upon his cheek
“O eyes of the people, stop and look!”
O eyes of people, stand still and look
