1. عجباً أتدري إنني

    فيها أتفكر لي بضاعه

    How wondrous! Do you know that I

    ponder her, with wares of my own?

  2. مستغرق في حبها

    ما فاتني في العمر ساعه

    I am immersed in love for her;

    not for an hour of my life has it eluded me.

  3. ولقد كتمت غرامها

    إذا تلك تغضبها الإشاعه

    And indeed I concealed my passion for her,

    when disclosure angers that one.

  4. ولها انفردت بخلوتي

    وبجلوتي بين الجماع

    And for her I kept apart in my solitude,

    and in my public life amid the gathering.

  5. ووقعت أن تدري بذ

    لك وأغنى المحض القناعه

    And I fell [wording unclear], that you might know of th—

    —at; and pure contentment sufficed [wording unclear].
