انظرْ فقد أَبْدَى الأَقاحِي مَبْسِما

يَفترُّ ضَحْكا فوقَ قَدٍّ أَمْلَدِ

Look, the anemones have begun to smile,

Giggling above a smooth, slender stem,

كفُصوصِ دُرٍّ لُطِّفَتْ أجرامُه

وتَنظَّمتْ من حولِ شَمْسةِ عَسْجدِ

Like polished pearls whose bodies were refined,

Arranged around a sunflower's golden head.
