وَهيَ سَليلُ النَواشِزِ النَفَرِ
I offered her as a gift, tame as a bride,
I gifted her, a companion so charming,
though she is the offspring of wild, skittish birds.
She's of a proud and noble line,
تَلبِسُshe wears سَمّورَةًa sable coat مُشَمَّرَةًtucked up

تَصونُ أَطرافَها مِنَ العَفَرِ
She wears a sable coat, tucked up,
Wearing a spotted, flowing gown,
keeping its edges free of dust.
That guards her limbs from soil and grime,
وَقَدand indeed جَرىflowed المِسكُmusk مِنfrom مَحاجِرِهاher eye sockets
وَقَد جَرى المِسكُ مِن مَحاجِرِها
فَضَمَّso it enfolded لَبّاتِهاher upper breast مَعَtogether with الثَغرِthe mouth
فَضَمَّ لَبّاتِها مَعَ الثَغرِ
And musk has flowed from her eye sockets,
Musk flowed from her cheeks in streams,
enfolding her upper breast together with her mouth.
Embracing her lips so soft and fine,
تَخطُرُshe struts فيin حُلَّةٍa robe مُصَدَّرَةٍadorned at the breast

كَأَنَّas though أَكمامَهاits sleeves مِنَof الحِبَرِstriped fabrics
كَأَنَّ أَكمامَها مِنَ الحِبَرِ
She struts in a robe adorned at the breast,
She glides in an embroidered dress,
as though its sleeves were of striped brocade.
Its sleeves as if penned in carmine,
وَاِحمَرَّand turned red مِنقارُهاher beak وَمِنخَرُهاand her nostril
وَاِحمَرَّ مِنقارُها وَمِنخَرُها

And her beak and nostril flushed red,
Red is her beak and nostrils too,
like roses opening in the dew before dawn.
Like roses blooming in the shine,
كَأَنَّهاas though she حينَwhen لَقطُpicking up قُرطُمِهاher safflower seeds

تَضرُبُ ياقوتَةً عَلى دُرَرِ
When she pecks up her safflower seeds, it is as though
When she takes off her earring,
she strikes a ruby against pearls.
She strikes a ruby on pure white pearls.
