اللَهُ جارُكَ يا سمعي ويا بصري

من العيونِ التي ترميكَ بالنظرِ

God is your protector, O my hearing and sight

From the eyes that glance at you

ومن نفاسةِ خديكَ اللذينِ لكَ ال

مَعنى وقد وُسِما بالشمسِ والقَمرِ

And from the softness of your cheeks that have

No meaning, yet are marked by sun and moon

فحاسناكَ فَما فازا بحُسنِهما

وخاطَراكَ فما فاتاكَ بالخَطَرِ

So your beauty - none has gained by its goodness

And your ideas - none has escaped its danger

مَن كانَ فيكَ من العُذالِ معتَذِراً

من الأنامِ فإنِّي غيرُ معتذِرِ

If there was in you an excuse from reproachers

Among people, then I have no excuse
