ريعَ قَلبي لَمّا ذَكَرتُ الدِيارا

وَتَنوَّرتُ بِالنُخَيلاتِ نارا

My heart was set ablaze when I recalled the abodes

And I was illuminated by the palm trees like fire

وَاِزدَهَيتَني ذاتُ السَنا بِبُروقٍ

مِن لَظاها فَما أُطيقُ اِصطِبارا

The possessor of whiteness has given me vitality with flashes

From her brightness, so I cannot show patience

وَالقَريحُ الفُؤادُ يَزدادُ لِلنا

رِ وَميضَ السَعيرِ مِنها اِستِعارا

And the mind, the heart, increases in yearning

For her and the flashing of lightning from her I borrow
