1. God knows and the days go round
And man is between shying and easing forward
١. اللَهُ يَعلَمُ وَالأَيّامُ دائِرَةٌ
وَالمَرءُ ما بَينَ إيحاشٍ وَإِيناسِ
2. Verily I love you with a love that if
It were embodied, the tall towering mountain would crumble
٢. أَنّي أُحِبُّكِ حُبّاً لَو تَضَمَّنَهُ
سَلمى سُمِيُّكِ دُكَّ الشاهِقُ الراسي
3. A love that has penetrated my entrails and commingled
Like the commingling of water and milk in a cup
٣. حُبّاً تَلَبَّسَ بِالأَحشاءِ فَاِمتَزَجا
تَمازُجَ الماءِ بِالصَهباءِ في الكَأسِ
