1. انظرْ إلى حسنِ هلالٍ بَدا

    يَهْتِكُ من أنْوَارِهِ الحِنْدسا

    Look at the beauty of a crescent moon that has appeared,

    Rending the deep darkness with its rays,

  2. كمنْجَلٍ قد صِيغَ من عَسْجَدٍ

    يحصُدُ من زَهْرِ الرّبى نَرْجِسَا

    Like a sickle fashioned from gold,

    Reaping narcissi from the flowers of the hills.
