حظيتْ راحتي برسمك حفني
مثلما فاز بالمسرة صدري
My comfort was graced by your portrait surrounding me
As my breast was graced with joy
صورةٌ ما شفَت غليلاً ولكن
حيرت في صفاتِ ذاتكَ فكري
An image I had not seen satiation with, but
My thoughts were confused by your attributes
أذكرتني محاسناً لك غراً
لم ينلها سواكَ من أهلِ مصرِ
You reminded me of unspoiled beauties about you
That none but you attained among the people of Egypt
