1. This poem and its light remind me
Of the beauty of the one I love, his radiance shines
١. يُذَكِّرُنٍي هَذَا الْقَرِيضُ وَنُورُه ُ
مَحَاسِنَ مَنْ أهْوَى تَلُوحُ ثُغُورُهُ
2. His dignity has soaked his nature
And his gentleness is embedded in his inner self
٢. فَعِزَّتُهُ قَدْ أُشْرِبَتْهَا طِبَاعُهُ
وَرِقَّتُهُ قَدْ ضُمِّنَتْهَا خُصُورُهُ
3. His radiance in the soul is the light of his beloved
When he appears and turns to him, his hair waves
٣. وَإِشْرَاقُهُ فِي النَّفْسِ نُورُ حَبِيبِهِ
إِذَا لَاحَ وَالْتَفَّتْ عَلَيْهِ شُعُورُهُ
4. And his attributes afterwards prove that he
Is the prince of people's speech, rather he is its light
٤. وَأَوْصَافُهُ مِنْ بَعْدُ تَقْضِي بِأَنَّهُ
أَمِيرُ كَلاَمِ النَّاسِ بَلْ هُوَ نُورُهُ
