قد لاح بالدير نار العابدين وقد

نضا الدجى لبسَهُ عن بسطة النظرِ

The fire of worshippers has appeared at the monastery, when

The darkness has shed its garment from the expanse of sight.

فقم بنا نتصلّاها معتَّقةً

يفي تنسُّمها عن مطعم خصرِ

So let us rise and free it while it is still intact,

Its breath is enough to perfume a slender waist.

الذ من نظرة المعشوق وَرَّدَها

صبغُ الحياء وفرط الدلِّ والخَفَرِ

It has taken refuge from the glance of the beloved and returned

Dyed by the color of shyness, intense love, and caution.
