أقْمَر والبدرَ طالعَيْنِ معاً

فقلتُ وجهُ الحبيبِ أيُّهما

The moon and full moon rose together

So I asked, which of the two is my beloved's face?

وأشْرَقا في ذوائبٍ ودُجىً

فزالَ في العَيْنِ فَرْق بَيْنَهُما

They shone through the darkness and gloom

But in my eyes no difference could be traced
