1. At the foot of As-Salihiya we alighted
At a palace amidst winding gardens

2. The birds twittered between us until
It was clear between us who was a lover

3. And the authentic nightingale sang to us
Its streams and the tail of the breeze fluttering

4. I yearned there for dwellings and rustled
My wings upon it sorting the pine nuts

5. I cannot forget our evening and friendship
Between us, with love being sincere

6. He steals me with affectionate glances
I ransom you, my prince, from thieves

7. The full moon rises in my eyes
On a bending branch amidst the lined trees

8. And I cannot forget the evening we were told
Mount the horses of love, and longing the driver

9. Come in the battlefields of competition
Between us reciting whoever was first

10. For some of us, victory is guaranteed
There, and another hesitant and pursuing

11. And in my love for whom I adore, I have a lead
Beyond the reaches of all front runners
