1. يا ظبية إن أتت يوماً منازلنا

    تمّت لنا بالهنا منها الإرادات

    O gazelle, if she should one day come to our dwellings,

    our wishes would be fulfilled through her in bliss.

  2. وكان ذا أسعد الأيام يا أملي

    وكيف لا وبه جاءت سعادات

    And this would be the happiest of days, O my hope;

    and how could it not, when joys came with it?
