1. أُعيذُها أَلفَ أَلفِ مَرَّهْ

    لأَنها أَلْفُ أَلْفِ دُرَّه

    I invoke protection for her a million times,

    because she is a million pearls;

  2. لأَنني أَرْتَجِي عَلَيْها

    منَ مَالِكِي أَلْفَ أَلْفِ بَدْره

    because I hope to receive in return for her

    from my master a million purses of money.

  3. وإِنَّ ذَا عِنْدَه قَلِيلٌ

    وفي ندى كفِّه كَذَرَّه

    And indeed, this is little to him,

    and like a speck amid the bounty of his palm.
