1. And there were gardens of anemones
Where the breeze of the winds wandered
١. ورياضٍ منَ الشقائقِ أضْحَتْ
يتهادَى فيها نسيمُ الرياحِ
2. I visited them while the clouds
Plucked flowers whose color pleased the soul
٢. زرتُها والغمامُ يجلدُ منها
زَهَراتٍ تروقُ لون الراحِ
3. I said "what is their fault?" and the answer came
"They stole the redness of the rosy cheeks"
٣. قلتُ ما ذنبُها فقال مجيباً
سَرَقَتْ حُمْرَةَ الخدودِ الملاح
