1. غَدا مِنَ الدَيرِ إِلى الدارِ

    مَن حُسنِهِ عارٍ مِنَ العارِ

    He went in the morning from the monastery to the house,

    One whose beauty is bare of shame.

  2. فَقُلتُ لِما اِفتَنَّ في مَشيِهِ

    أَعيذُهُ بِخالِقِ الباري

    So I said, when he showed artistry in his gait:

    I seek protection for him by the Creator of the Maker.

  3. ما أَحسَنَ الزُنّارَ في خَصرِهِ

    يا لَكَ مِن خَصرٍ وَزُنّارِ

    How beautiful the girdle is around his waist!

    Oh, what a waist and girdle!

  4. طوبى لِأَهلِ النارِ إِن كانَ ذا

    يَكونُ يَومَ البَعثِ في النارِ

    Blessed are the people of the Fire, if this one should

    Be in the Fire on the Day of Resurrection.
