1. باينت من قطرات صوارمه دماً

    كجفون ملتهب الجوانح وامق

    You differed, in blood, from the drops of his keen swords [wording unclear].

    Like the eyelids of a lover whose breast is aflame.

  2. أفديك من أنباك إني هاجع

    طمعاً لطيفٍ من خيالك طارق

    I would give my life for you—who told you I was asleep,

    Hoping for a phantom of your image to visit by night?

  3. ما كنت جاهلةً بأني عاشق

    فمتى جهلت تقاد نوم العاشق

    You were not unaware that I am a lover;

    When, then, did you not know [unclear wording] the sleep of a lover?
