إِنّ الثّرّيا وَبدرَ الأفقِ قارَنَها
أَبدَت بِهِ طَرَباً ناهيكَ مِن طَرَبِ
Indeed, the Pleiades—the horizon’s full moon having drawn alongside her—
showed rapture at his presence—rapture beyond telling.
فَعقدُ درٍّ لِخودٍ عندَهُ وُضِعَت
مريدةُ اللّبسِ مِرآةٌ مِنَ الذّهبِ
Thus, beside a pearl necklace for a fair maiden was set
a golden mirror, longing to wear it.
