قالَ عطّاري وعَنْ في

قالَ عطّاري وعَنْ في

هِ وعَنْ خدَّيهِ أنبا

هِ وعَنْ خدَّيهِ أنبا

My perfumer spoke, and of his mouth

The perfumer said, and from his mouth

and of his cheeks he told:

Came fragrance, and his cheeks were roses:

هاهنا ماءُ لسانٍ

هاهنا ماءُ لسانٍ

وهنا الوردُ المربَّى

وهنا الوردُ المربَّى

“Here is tongue-water,

"Here is a water for the tongue,

and here is rose preserve.”

And here a rosebush growing."
