برزت من الماء الذي ابتردت به

ريا الشباب بديعة الإشراق

She emerged from the water in which she had cooled herself,

Fresh with youth, wondrously radiant;

وندى الصباح يزينها بنطافه

فإذا جرت خيلت ندى أحداق

And morning dew adorns her with its droplets,

And when they streamed, they seemed the dew of eyes—

تلك التي كانت لآليء بهجة

بلقائها أضحت دموع فراق

Those that had been pearls of joy

At meeting her became tears of parting.
