بِروحي ثَناياهُ وَحسن اِنتِظامِها
عَلى أَنّها صَفّانِ فَوقِيٌّ وَتَحتاني
My soul as ransom for his front teeth and their lovely alignment,
With my soul its folds, and the beauty of its arrangement,
though they form two rows, an upper and a lower;
As if it were rows above me and below me,
فَعقدانِ مِن دُرٍّ ثَمينٍ تَنَظَّما
بِسلكٍ مِنَ الياقوتِ أَو سِلكِ عِقيانِ
thus, two necklaces of precious pearls, both strung
Two strands of precious pearls arranged
on a thread of ruby or a thread of pure gold.
On a string of rubies or sapphire wire.
