1. يقرُّ بِعَيني أَن يلمَّ رَسولُها

    بِبابي وَيَهدي بِالعَشِيِّ سَلامَها

    It gladdens my eye that her messenger should call

    At my door and bring her greetings in the evening,

  2. وَيَذكرَ لي دونَ الرِجال حَديثَها

    وَيَنشُرَ عِندي نطقَها وَكَلامَها

    And recount her talk to me alone among men,

    And unfold before me her speech and her words.
