لَقَد أَمسَكَ المِرآةَ بَدرُ مَحاسنٍ
لَقَد فاقَ شَمس الأفقِ حُسناً وَمَطلعا
Indeed, a full moon of beauty held the mirror.
The full moon held a mirror of perfect beauty,
Indeed, he surpassed the horizon’s sun in beauty and in rising.
It surpassed the rising sun in splendor and charm,
وَأَبصَر مِنها نَفسَه فَاِهتَوى بِها
وَهامَ بِها وَلهانَ وَجداً وَأُولعا
And he saw himself in it, then fell in love with himself.
It saw itself and was smitten with love,
And he was lost in love with himself, distraught with passion and enthralled.
It became infatuated, madly in love, and obsessed.
Sol 6.1
