1. يا شَبيهَ الهِلالِ سُقياً لِلَيلٍ

    بِتَّ فيهِ مُعانِقي وَضَجيعي

    O you who resemble the crescent, may rain bless the night

    In which you spent the night embracing me and sharing my bed.

  2. أَقسَمَت مُقلَتي مَتى غِبتَ عَنها

    أَنها لا تَلَذُّ طَعمَ الهُجوعِ

    My eye has sworn, whenever you are absent from it,

    That it will not savor the taste of slumber.
