1. وجلَّنارٍ على غصُونٍ

    وكلُّ غصْنٍ بهِنَّ مَائِسْ

    And pomegranate blossoms upon branches,

    And every branch among them sways gracefully,

  2. يَحْكِي الشَرارِيبَ وَهْيَ خُضْرٌ

    وهْوَ بأَطْرَافِها كبَائِسْ

    Resembling tassels, green as they are,

    With the blossoms clustered at their tips.
