أَضْرِمْ لِمَنْ رَامَ وَصْلاً مِنْكَ أَو خَطَبا

ناراً جَعلْتَ لَها أَحْشَاءَهُ حَطَبَا

Kindle a fire for one who sought your love or asked for you

You made his heart the fuel and tinder for that fire

وَأْمُرْ غُصُونَ النَّقا أَنْ تَنْثني خَجَلاً

وَقُل لِشَمْسِ الضُّحَى أَنْ تَبْتَغي حُجُبَا

Bid the boughs of slender willows bow down shyly

And tell the radiant dawn to seek out veils

وَاطْلُبْ مِنَ الحُسْنِ شُكْراناً فَوجْهُكَ قَدْ

أَعْطاهُ مِنْ بَعْضِهِ كُلَّ الَّذي طَلَبَا

Ask your beauty to thank you, for your face

Gave it some of the all it desired
