1. The cheeks' spring flowing
When it flows in the spring
١. ومُوَرّدِ الخَدّينِ يَخطِرُ
حينَ يخطِر في مورَّدْ
2. It waters you from the pools of the eyes
When the tears of the wakeful water you
٢. يَسقيكَ منْ جَفنِ اللُّجَينِ
إذا سَقاكَ دَموعَ عَسْجَدْ
3. Until you think the stars descend
Or you think the earth ascends
٣. حتى تَظنّ النّجمَ يَنزِلُ
أو تَظنَّ الأرضَ تَصْعَدْ
4. So when he waters you with his eye
And his mouth then he waters you with his hand
٤. فإِذا سَقاكُ بِعَيْنِهِ
وَبِفِيهِ ثمَّ سَقاكَ بِاليَدْ
5. He greeted you with the ruby then
With the pearl from under the peridot
٥. حَيَّاكَ بالياقُوتِ ثمَّ
الدُّرِّ مِنْ تَحتِ الزَّبّرْجَدْ
