وَشَقَائِقٍ خَجِلَتْ مَلاَحَةُ لَوْنِهِ

وَشَقَائِقٍ خَجِلَتْ مَلاَحَةُ لَوْنِهِ

فَلَهُ التَّعَصْفُرُ مُسْعِدٌ وَشَقِيْقُ

فَلَهُ التَّعَصْفُرُ مُسْعِدٌ وَشَقِيْقُ

And anemones—the beauty of their hue has blushed;

Safflower coloring is their helper and brother.

يَرْنُو بِأَرْقَطِهِ إِلَى مُحْمَرَّةٍ

يَرْنُو بِأَرْقَطِهِ إِلَى مُحْمَرَّةٍ

فَاللَّحْظُ جِزْعٌ وَالْجُفُونُ عَقِيْقُ

فَاللَّحْظُ جِزْعٌ وَالْجُفُونُ عَقِيْقُ

They gaze with their speckled eyes toward a crimson bloom;

Their gaze is onyx, and their eyelids carnelian.
