Did you rise early or are you wandering in the meadows?

أغدوت أم في الرائحين تروح

1. Did you rise early or are you wandering in the meadows?
Or are you in good health from the memory of past love?

١. أَغَدَوتَ أَم في الرَّائحين تَرُوحُ
أَم أَنتَ مِن ذِكرِ الحِسانِ صَحيحُ

2. When the beautiful one said, "What is wrong with our friend?
His clothes are worn and yet he looks so handsome."

٢. إِذ قَالَتِ الحَسنَاءُ ما لِصَدِيقِنا
رثَّ الثيابِ وإنَّه لمَلِيحُ

3. Do not ask about the clothes, for when we meet
I will be leaning languidly on the sand dunes.

٣. لا تَسأَلِنَّ عنِ الثِّيابِ فَإِنَّني
يومَ اللِّقَاءِ على الكُماةِ مُشِيحُ

4. I hurl my spear, then follow with a blow
That leaves the women weeping over the men.

٤. أَرمِي وَأَطعَنُ ثُمَّ أُتِبعُ ضَربَةً
تَدَعُ النساءَ على الرجالِ تَنُوحُ
