سَكرَتُها في كفِّها
وسكرتي في طرفها
Her intoxication in her palm,
and my intoxication in her glance.
وخدُّها تفاحةٌ
لو سامحتْ بقطفِها
Her cheek an apple -
if only she'd allow it to be plucked!
وشعرها منتصرٌ
لخصرها من رِدفها
Her hair victorious,
for her hips, for her frame.
به أُديلَ نصفُها
في مشيها من نصفها
With it she revealed half of herself,
in her walk, from her half.
