1. Your body knew no illness, only health
Which cast its radiance upon you for all to see

2. If one finds fault with your paleness, say to him
Can there be anything nobler than the banner of An-Nasir?

3. If flushed, it is from the length of time
It has grown used to residing in my passionate thoughts

4. Sweat that flowed as a river, revived by it
Like a parchment cast into the hands of an infidel

5. A night journey that harmed it
Beware of it, let no touch of an obstinate one come upon it
