إن كنتُ في الحسْنِ بدراً

فهالةُ البدر أنتمْ

If I were a full moon in beauty

Then the moon's halo is you

أو كنت كعبة أنسٍ

فإنكم بيَ طفتمْ

Or if I were a Kaaba of intimacy

Then you have circled around me

لولاي قطب سرورٍ

لما عليَّ استدرتمْ

If not for me being an axis of joy

You would not have revolved around me
