الشمسُ تقبس نورُها من نورهِ

والبدرُ يَحكيهِ لعزِّ نظيرهِ

The sun borrows its light from His light

And the moon relates it to the glory of its peer

وله على خدّيهِ من أصداغه

حلق تتيه بمِسكه وعبيرهِ

And from His cheeks it has a halo

That wanders lost in its musk and fragrance

يا من تكاملَ في جميعِ خصالهِ

صل من وصلتَ أنينَهُ بزفيرهِ

O You who is perfect in all Your attributes

Join whom You have joined their moan with their sigh

صَبا متَى اكتتَم الهَوى مِما بهِ

ولعَت مدامعُهُ بهَتكِ ستورهِ

Youth, when has secret love of what is in it

Ignited its tears to unveil its veils
