مشرقُ الوجه غضيضٌ طرفهُ

ناعمٌ يهتزُّ ليناً عطفُهُ

Bright-faced, his glance tender,

Gentle, his charm sways softly.

مخطفُ الأعلى هضيمٌ كشحُهُ

لم يجر ما دَقَّ منه رِدفُهُ

Slim-waisted, his form graceful,

Unmarred by all that his mantle hides.

زانَهُ اللَه فيا طوبى لِمَن

نالَهُ تقريبُهُ أو عطفُهُ

God graced him - happy they

Who gain his intimacy or kindness!

نعمَت للحسنِ عيناهُ بهِ

وزَها بالقُربِ منهُ إلفُهُ

Eyes enjoying his beauty,

Grow accustomed to his nearness.
