1. قامَ فلمَّا دَنَوْتُ منها

    نامَ وما مثلُ ذاكَ خجلهْ

    He stood up but when I approached her

    She slept though that wasn't like her shyness

  2. وكلَّ كفِّي لفرطِ جَذْبِي

    لهُ وما للجبانِ حملهْ

    And both my palms out of my intense pulling

    Of him though the coward has no endurance

  3. وأصبعي لا تزالُ جنباً

    لهُ ولا همَّة لسِفْلهْ

    And my finger kept hovering over

    Him though the base has no ambition

  4. فزَحْزَحَتْ وانْثَنَتْ وقالتْ

    قومُوا انظرُوا عاشِقاً بوصلهْ

    So she wiggled away and bent over and said

    Get up look a lover in his union

  5. فقلتُ هذا لفرطِ حُبِّي

    قالتْ دع الترَّهاتِ باللهْ

    So I said this is out of my intense love

    She said leave this nonsense for God's sake

  6. قلتُ أُقيمُ الدليلَ قالتْ

    لو قامَ ما احتجتَ للأَدلَّهْ

    I said I'll provide the proof she said

    If it could stand you wouldn't need proof
