1. شارَفتُ بِمُلتَقى القِبابِ الجونِ

    بيضاً سحرت بلبّيَ المَفتونِ

    I approached the meeting place of the tents

    White, my infatuated heart was bewitched

  2. يَكشِفنَ وُجوهَهُنَّ زَهواً لَكِن

    يَضربنَ مِن العَفافِ سَدّاً دوني

    They revealed their faces radiantly but

    Struck from chastity a barrier before me
