Claude 2

  1. بِاللَهِ يا ذات الخَالِ

    لا تَسمَعي قَول الخالي

    By Allah, O you of beauty

    Do not listen to the words of the critic

  2. شَمس تَناهَت بِالعجبِ

    حَتّى تَوارَت بِالحجبِ

    A sun that hid in wonder

    Until it disappeared behind the veils

  3. وَإِذ تَدانَت لِلقُربِ

    ما لي وَما للعذّالِ

    And when it came closer in proximity

    What is mine and what is for the blamer

  4. زارَت وَسحر الأَحداقِ

    يَسبي عُقول العشّاقِ

    She visited and the magic of her glances

    Captivates the minds of lovers

  5. وَوَجهها بِالإِشراق

    يَحكي سَنا البَدر العالي

    And her face with radiance

    Tells the tale of the full moon

  6. فاقَت عَلى غُصن الرندِ

    بِلين أَعطاف القدِّ

    She surpassed the branch of the willow

    With the softness of her slender waist

  7. وَلَحظها التُركي الهِندي

    يَحمي لَمى الثَغر الحالي

    And her Turkish tender glance

    Protects the radiance of her lips

  8. حازَت مَقام التَنزيهِ

    عَن الظبا بِالتَشبيهِ

    She attained the position of purity

    Above the gazelles in comparison

  9. فاِروِ أَحاديث التيهِ

    عَن لُطف جرّ الأَذيالِ

    So narrate the tales of bewilderment

    About the gentleness of trailing the train

  10. أَذكى صَلاتي لِلهادي

    شَمس الهُدى وَالإِسعادِ

    My prayers revive for the Guide

    The sun of guidance and prosperity

  11. وَآل ناديه النادي

    أَهل النَدى وَالإِفضالِ

    And his family who called out

    The people of bounty and virtue
