1. O fragrance whose dwelling is Fez
However the sun rises, it is outshone

2. By your temples in your cheeks that revealed
Where roses and myrtle were planted

3. And your soft waist that bent with delight
Is it a branch for a doe to graze?

4. Your lashes suffice as wine, and your cheek
From which your breath flows

5. Give me no wine after them
For they have done what cups do

6. A smooth-cheeked doe with a lovely glance
She feeds her fawns in the thickets

7. His attributes did to my heart such torment
As the breeze does to the pliant branch

8. Like a bough shaken over a hillock
Like dawn risen beneath a gloomy night

9. Abu al-Walid, you have understood a passionate lover
Whose harsh arrows pierce the miserable
