مَلَأَ العُيونَ غَضارَةً وَنَضارَةً

صَحوٌ يُطالِعُنا بِوَجهٍ مونَقِ

It filled the eyes with freshness and delight

A morning dawns upon us with a radiant face

وَالشَمسُ واضِحَةُ الجَبينِ كَأَنَّها

وَجهُ المَليحَةِ في الخِمارِ الأَزرَقِ

And the sun with a clear brow as though it were

The face of a beauty behind her blue veil

وَكَأَنَّها عِندَ اِنبِساطِ شُعاعِها

تِبرٌ يَذوبُ عَلى فُروعِ المَشرِقِ

And as though when its rays spread out

It is a melting ingot on the branches of the orient

جَرَّت إِذا بَكَرَت ذُيولَ مُزَعفَرٍ

وَتَجُرُّ إِذ راحَت ذُيولَ مُمَشَّقِ

When it rose early it dragged the trains of gold-embroidered robes

And when it set it dragged the trains of red brocade

فَشَرِبتُها عَذراءَ مِن يَدِ مِثلِها

تَحكي الصَباحَ مَعَ الصَباحِ المُشرِقِ

So I drank it in, a maiden from the hand of her like

Telling the tale of morning to the bright morning

في رَوضَةٍ تَلقاكَ حينَ لَقيتَها

بِمُنَمنَمٍ مِن نَبتِها وَمُنَمَّقِ

In a garden that meets you when you met her

With whispering from its plants and murmuring

فَاِنظُر إِلى عُشبٍ هُناكَ مُجَمَّعٍ

وَاِنظُر إِلى زَهرٍ هُناكَ مُفَرَّقِ

Then look at the herbs gathered there

And look at the flowers scattered there

تُحبى بِوَردٍ كَاللُجَينِ مُكَفَّرٍ

مِنها وَوَردٍ كَالعَقيقِ مُخَلَّقِ

Gifted with roses like polished silver

And with roses like perforated carnelian

وَكَذاكَ تُتحَفُ مِن مَنافِعِ مائِها

بِمُخَلَّقٍ يَعلو ذُؤابَةَ أَخلَقِ

And so she is adorned with useful things from her waters

With what is perforated, higher than the most high-reaching hands

يَبدو وَيَكمُنُ في الغَديرِ كَأَنَّهُ

جانٍ يُحاوِلُ أَن يَبينَ وَيَتَّقي

It appears and hides in the pond as though it were

A devil trying to show and hide itself

فَإِلى السُرورِ لَنا عَنانٌ مَطلَقٌ

إِنَّ الفَوائِدِ في العَنانِ المُطلَقِ

So to joy for us the rein is loosened

Truly in the loosened rein is advantage
