I love a graceful gazelle fawn, slender of form.
I yearn for a gentle youth, slender and tall
My heart has borne, because of him, what it cannot endure.
Who has burdened my heart with more than it can bear
ماnot ترحمyou pity فيin هواكlove for you ياO بدرfull moon دجىdarkness
ما ترحم في هواك يا بدر دجى
منone whom يرحمهpities him كلevery عدّوٍenemy وصديقand friend

O full moon of darkness, you show no mercy to your lover,
Show no mercy in your love, O moon of nightfall
Whom every enemy and friend pities.
For one pitied alike by every foe and friend
