وأقلْنا لدى مدبِّ ظلالٍ

وأقلْنا لدى مدبِّ ظلالٍ

أسْبَلَتْها شجراؤُها في ذَرَاها

أسْبَلَتْها شجراؤُها في ذَرَاها

And we rested at noon where shadows creep,

And we paused by the roaming of shade's shadows

which its trees had draped within its shelter,

Whose branches let down their skirts amid their motes

حيثُ رندانة النسيم تمشَّتْ

حيثُ رندانة النسيم تمشَّتْ

مِشْيَةَ الخَوْدِ تنجلي في رُباها

مِشْيَةَ الخَوْدِ تنجلي في رُباها

where the breeze’s laurel strolled,

Where the flirtatious breeze sashayed softly

with a maiden’s gait, coming into view upon its hills.

With the gait of a fawn gleaming through her robe
