أَفدي غَزال الحِمى
عَذب اللمى
I sacrifice the gazelle of longing
Sweet of union
الشَهدي النَدى
المبدي دَلالا
The honeyed dew
Revealing a guide
من لَحظه قَد حَمى
عَنّي حمى
For his glance has protected me
It has warmed me, my rose, my basil
وَردي وِردي
يردي قتالا
It leads to struggle
He sang, so he sang the sweetest songs
غَنّى فَأَغنى فما
أَحلى فَما
Nothing is sweeter than his mouth
It calls, it seduces
يهدي يندي
يُبدي جَمالا
Revealing beauty
A pearl, a smiling mouth
دُرّ حَلا مَبسما
فيهِ سَما
In it, heaven
My rapture leads me
وَجدي يجدي
رشدي كَمالا
My sanity leads me to perfection
When he smiled his smile
لَما تَوسَّم تَبسَّم
عَن درّ مبسم منظم
From a string of pearls, an orderly smile
He revealed brilliant teeth
أَبدى سَنا عقدين
درين يا عين حَيا اللَه
Two strings of pearls, O eye, may God keep you living
O branch bent with knowledge
يا غصن بان العلم
حالي عَدم
My state is nonexistence
I have become compliant
أصبح فاِسمح
واِمنح متيّم
So pardon me and grant me
Look upon my state, for I do not complain of pain
اِنظر لحالي فَلم
أشكو أَلم
Relieve me, take wing
You will succeed, O obsessed one
برّح فاِجنح
تنجح لمغرم
On the cheek the pen writes
Reciting pain
في الخَدّ خطّ القلم
يَتلو أَلم
We are relieved, so step lightly
And go gently to gain
نَشرح فاِشطح
واِمرح لِتَغنم
My eyes answered openly
By God, we will not
أَجاب طرفي عَلَن
تَاللَّه لَن
Leave or travel
We will rejoice in our gain
نَبرَح نَسرَح
نَفرَح بِمغنم
My love, O matchless, O most chanted
O set star, disappear and be reborn
حبّي يا مفرد يا أَغيد
يا نجم فرقد توَلّد
Make haste with wishes, O beauty
For distance is my lot, oh my God
جد بِالمُنى يا زين
فالبين لي حين أَي وَاللَه
For God, the full moon rose
The sun of gold
لِلّه بَدر جَلا
شَمس الطِلا
In melodies, seductive
Lids fluttering
في الحان فتان
أَجفان مَهفهف
It gave life, so it revived the splendor
When it rose
حَيّا فَأَحيا المَلا
لَما تَلا
Melodies and passions
Charms and gentleness
أَلحان أَشجان
وَلهان تَلطّف
If one day it disappears
Do not let me
إِن مَرَّ يَوماً حَلا
هَتكي فَلا
Make melodies, so I rave
Since it shone tenderly
تلحان فَالبان
مُذ بان تَعطّف
My spirit on the gold of the new moon's cheek
On the scent of basil, two kinds
راحي وَخد الطَلا
روح عَلى
Pleasure and aloes wood and ambergris
Arise, call out drunkenly and let us drink wine
ريحان نَوعان
نعمان وَقرقف
For the full moon has dawned and shone
It calls to the harvest of two cheeks
قُم صاح نسكر وَنَخمر
فَالبَدر أسفر وَأبدر
يهدي جنى خَدين
