1. الوردُ على خدِّكَ مَنْ أَنبته

    والمسكُ على وردكَ مَنْ فتته

    Who made the rose grow upon your cheek?

    And who crumbled the musk upon your rose?

  2. والقلبُ على نأيك من ثبته

    أَجمع شملاً هواك قد شتته

    And who steadied the heart despite your distance?

    Gather into one what love for you has scattered.
