خَرَجنَ خُروجَ الأَنجُمِ الزُهرِ فَاِلتَقى

عَلَيهُنَّ مِنهُنَّ المَلاحَةُ وَالشَكلُ

The stars came out like flowers in bloom

Meeting together in harmony of form and grace

وَخالٍ كَخالِ البَدرِ في وَجهِ مِثلِهِ

لَقينا المُنى فيهِ فَحاجَزَنا البَذلُ

With a mole like the moon's in a similar face

We found our desires in him, though paying the price

وَماءٍ كَعَينِ الشَمسِ لا يَقبَلُ القَذى

إِذا دَرَجَت فيهِ الصِبا خِلتَهُ يَعلو

With eyes like the sun, taking in no speck of dust

When the youthful breeze stirred its calmness was lost

مِنَ الضُحَّكِ الغُرِّ اللَواتي إِذا اِلتَقَت

يُحَدِّثُ عَن أَسرارِها السَبَلُ الهَطلُ

Of lips red and moist that when coming together

Reveal their secrets through trails and rainfall

صَدَعنا بِهِ حَدَّ الشَمولِ وَقَد طَفَت

فَأَلبَسَها حِلماً وَفي حِلمِها جَهلُ

We broke through with him to complete union and more

Robing it in dream, though in dream there was ignorance
