1. غَبطتُ نَسيمَ الرّوضِ في طيبِ عَيشِهِ

    يُرقّص أَغصاناً وَيَلعَبُ بِالنّهرِ

    I envied the garden breeze for the sweetness of its life.

    It sets branches dancing and plays with the river.

  2. يُصافِحُ أَوراقَ الغُصونِ مُقبِّلاً

    خُدوداً وَأَفواهاً جَهاراً مِنَ الزّهرِ

    It shakes hands with the leaves of the boughs, kissing

    Cheeks and mouths of flowers openly.
