تميس تيهاً وتثني القد إعجابا

Rosy-cheeked and clad in rose-pink, she swept gracefully by,

Rosy-cheeked, she has sauntered in rose-pink;

swaying proudly and bending her figure in self-admiration.

She sways proudly and bends her figure in self-admiration.

لم يكف قامتها الهيفاء ما فعلت

لم يكف قامتها الهيفاء ما فعلت

حتى اكتست من دم العشاق أثوابا

حتى اكتست من دم العشاق أثوابا

Her slender form was not content with what she had done,

What she had done was not enough for her slender figure,

until she clothed herself in garments of lovers’ blood.

Until she clothed herself in robes of lovers' blood.
