رأيتُ مليحينِ لوْ أُنْصفا

إذا اجتمعا عُوِّذا بالرُّقى

I saw two beauties, were I to describe them justly

When together, they'd be protected by prayer

هلالَيْ دُجى وغزالي فلا

وشَمْسَيْ ضَحاءٍ وغُصْنَيْ نَقا

Two moons of dark night and two gazelles of splendor

Two suns of daylight and two tender branches
