وَلا بِدْعَ أَن قَد غابَ مِن حُسنِ زَينبٍ
جَمالُthe beauty of بَناتٍgirls كُلُّهنُّall of them كَواعِبُbudding-breasted maidens
جَمالُ بَناتٍ كُلُّهنُّ كَواعِبُ
And no wonder that Zaynab’s beauty has eclipsed
Without a doubt, there has disappeared from Zaynab's beauty
the beauty of girls, all of them budding-breasted maidens.
The beauty of all girls like shining stars
فَزينَبُfor Zaynab شَمسٌa sun وَالبَناتُand the girls كَواكِبٌstars
فَزينَبُ شَمسٌ وَالبَناتُ كَواكِبٌ
فَإنfor if تَبدُappears تِلكَthat الشَّمسُthe sun تَخفَdisappear الكَواكِبُthe stars
فَإن تَبدُ تِلكَ الشَّمسُ تَخفَ الكَواكِبُ
For Zaynab is a sun, and the girls are stars;
For Zaynab is a sun, and the girls are planets
for if that sun appears, the stars disappear.
So if that sun appears, the stars grow dim
