And a rosy-cheeked one, whose beauty is a sun—
The source of gardens, the sun of his beauty,
when he appeared, its radiance dazzled the eyes.
When it appeared, nothing but light filled my eyes.

فغدا بها نظري اليه ممكنا
Beauty inscribed lines upon his cheeks,
He drew the line of beauty across his brow,
and through them my gaze upon him became possible.
So it was possible for me to look upon him.
كالشمسlike the sun تمنعكit prevents you اجتلاؤكyour beholding وجههاits face
كالشمس تمنعك اجتلاؤك وجهها
فإذاbut when اكتستit clothed itself برقيقin a thin غيمcloud امكناbecame possible
فإذا اكتست برقيق غيم امكنا
Like the sun, which prevents you from beholding its face;
Like the sun, its shining face prevents you,
but when it dons a thin cloud, gazing becomes possible.
But veiled softly by cloud, gazing was possible.
