مليح في الملاحة ما يُوازي

تملك مهجتي ودمي وحازا

None can compare in beauty, he has won

My heart and soul, his prize forevermore.

بذلتُ له المودَّةَ من فؤادي

فجازاني بأحسن ما يُجازي

I gave to him my true devotion whole,

And he repaid me with the sweetest love.

عروسُ ملاحةٍ جُلِيت علينا

وقد نُفِل الجمالُ لها جهازا

A bride of beauty shone before our eyes,

Adorned with graces as her wedding gift.

غلائل خدِّها صُبِغَت بوَردٍ

وقد جُعِل النهارُ لها طِرازا

Her cheeks were dyed as with a rose's hue,

The light of day itself her ornament.
