لَحَظاتٌ سَواحِرُ

لَحَظاتٌ سَواحِرُ

وَجُفونٌ فَواتِرُ

وَجُفونٌ فَواتِرُ

Bewitching glances,

Enchanting moments

And languid eyelids,

And languid eyelids

وَقُدودٌ نَواعِمٌ

وَقُدودٌ نَواعِمٌ

وَخُدودٌ نَواصِرُ

وَخُدودٌ نَواصِرُ

And supple figures,

With tender cheeks

And cheeks that lend their aid,

And gleaming cheeks

نُزَةٌ ما يَمِلُّها

نُزَةٌ ما يَمِلُّها

ناظِرٌ مِنكَ ناظِرُ

ناظِرٌ مِنكَ ناظِرُ

A delight never found tiresome

A glance that does not tire

By a gazing eye of yours—

Of your gazing look

مِن بُدورٍ بُروجُها

مِن بُدورٍ بُروجُها

حينَ تَسيري المَعاجِرُ

حينَ تَسيري المَعاجِرُ

From full moons whose mansions,

Of full moons, their towers

When you walk, are the head-wraps.

When you walk the roads
