يوماً وقد قامَتْ وقدْ نامَا
She said, when I had told her, ‘Play with it,’
She said, and I had said, “Sport with him,”
one day, when she had risen and it had fallen asleep:
One day when we had risen or had slept,
لوْif كانwere إسرافيلُIsrafil فيin رَاحَتيmy palm
لوْ كان إسرافيلُ في رَاحَتي
ينفخُhe blows فيinto أَيركَyour cock ماnot قامَاit rose
ينفخُ في أَيركَ ما قامَا
‘If Israfil were in my palm,
If Israfil had been within my grasp
blowing into your cock, it would not rise.’
To blow upon thy brow when ye had slept!
Sol 6.1
