قَدْ سَتَرَتْ وَجْهَهَا مِنَ الخَفَرِ
بِساعِدٍwith a forearm حَلَّundid عِقْدَthe knot of مُصْطَبَريmy endurance
بِساعِدٍ حَلَّ عِقْدَ مُصْطَبَري
She has covered her face out of modesty
Hidden by her sleeve from spies
with a forearm that undid the knot of my endurance.
With braceleted arms fair
كَأَنَّهُas though it were والعُيونُand the eyes تَرْمُقُهُgaze at it
كَأَنَّهُ والعُيونُ تَرْمُقُهُ
عَمودُa pillar of نورٍlight فيwithin دارَةِthe halo of القَمَرِthe moon
عَمودُ نورٍ في دارَةِ القَمَرِ
While eyes gaze upon it, it is like
As if with watching eyes
a pillar of light within the moon’s halo.
A moonbeam's pillar there
