من النسيم سكارى وهي دالات
The garden’s alif-shaped trees stir my longing as they lean,
drunk on the breeze and curved like dals.
وليand for me منfrom الورقthe doves فيamong أوراقهاtheir leaves طرباrapture
ولي من الورق في أوراقها طربا

كأنهن على العيدان قينات
And the doves among their leaves bring me rapture,
as though they were singing girls, the boughs their lutes.
