1. Nothing is hotter in the bosom of lovers
Than these sickly eyes
١. ليس شيءٌ أحرَّ في مهجة العا
شقِ من هذه العيونِ المراضِ
2. And blushing cheeks adorned with beauty
Their whiteness shamed by loveliness
٢. والخدودِ المضَرَّجاتِ اللَواتي
شيب جريالها بحسن البَياضِ
3. And the fluttering of eyelids and the flirtatious glances
At first meeting and initial aloofness
٣. ورنُوِّ الجفون والغَمزِ بالحا
جب عند الصُدود والإعراضِ
4. And the beloved's neck as night falls dark
When the sleepless tossed and turned to slumber
٤. وطروقِ الحبيب والليلُ داجٍ
حين همَّ السُمّار بالإغماضِ
