أَهلاً بِزَهرِ اللازَوَرد وَمَرحَبا

في رَوضَةِ الكِتّانِ تَعطِفُهُ الصِبا

Welcome O blossom of almond, and greetings

In the garden of flax bending with the breeze

لَو كُنتَ ذا جَهلٍ لَخِلتُكَ لُجَّةً

وَكَشَفتُ عَن ساقٍ كَما فَعَلَت سَبا

Had you been ignorant, I would have left you confused

And revealed a leg as Sheba had done
