ومُوَرّدِ الخَدّينِ يَخطِرُ

حينَ يخطِر في مورَّدْ

The cheeks' spring flowing

When it flows in the spring

يَسقيكَ منْ جَفنِ اللُّجَينِ

إذا سَقاكَ دَموعَ عَسْجَدْ

It waters you from the pools of the eyes

When the tears of the wakeful water you

حتى تَظنّ النّجمَ يَنزِلُ

أو تَظنَّ الأرضَ تَصْعَدْ

Until you think the stars descend

Or you think the earth ascends

فإِذا سَقاكُ بِعَيْنِهِ

وَبِفِيهِ ثمَّ سَقاكَ بِاليَدْ

So when he waters you with his eye

And his mouth then he waters you with his hand

حَيَّاكَ بالياقُوتِ ثمَّ

الدُّرِّ مِنْ تَحتِ الزَّبّرْجَدْ

He greeted you with the ruby then

With the pearl from under the peridot
