Many a full moon has spent a night unveiling
The full moon began to shine at nightfall
a sun of wine, pressed from his dark lips.
The sun slipped away, wringing out its light

اجتماع الشمس عندي والقمر
And wondrous, beneath the skirts of night,
And strangely enough, beneath the cloak of dusk
is the meeting of the sun and moon in my presence.
The sun and moon converge within my sight
