1. بَرِّدْ غليل فؤادي

    بِبَرْدِ تِلك الثنايَا

    Cool the burning thirst of my heart

    with the coolness of those front teeth,

  2. وشِمْ سيوفَ لحاظٍ

    جرَّدْتَها للمَنايا

    and sheathe the swords of glances

    you have drawn to bring death,

  3. يا من بجَفْنَيهِ سِحرٌ

    مُكَمَّنٌ للبلايا

    O you whose eyelids hold magic

    lying in ambush to bring calamities.
