من جلعز افيه

من جلعز افيه

ومن طلع طلع شاربه

ومن طلع طلع شاربه

Whoever [remaining wording unclear],

With a beard not yet grown

And whoever's mustache has begun to sprout—

And a mustache just sprouting

صوفان في وجنته

صوفان في وجنته

ما ينفعه منطبه

ما ينفعه منطبه

Tinder upon his cheek—

Woolly sideburns on his cheeks

His [unclear term] does him no good.

Of no value to him

ولست مشتاق إليه

ولست مشتاق إليه

لو زارني لا اضربه

لو زارني لا اضربه

And I do not long for him;

And I do not yearn for him

If he visited me, I would not strike him.

If he visits I will not hit him

وأنتشى بالمطال

وأنتشى بالمطال

واستربح إن هجره

واستربح إن هجره

And I grow drunk on delay,

And I am happy with promises

And I count it gain if he forsakes him.

And pleased if he stays away

فمن بدت لحيته

فمن بدت لحيته

فما عليه من حرج

فما عليه من حرج

So whoever's beard has appeared,

So if his beard starts growing

There is no blame upon him,

He bears no shame

ولو تصل سرته

ولو تصل سرته

وتستحب في الدرج

وتستحب في الدرج

Even if it reaches his navel

Even if his hidden part connects

And is deemed desirable on the stairs.

And is welcomed on the path

لا يبصره خبرته

لا يبصره خبرته

مليح ولو هو لفج

مليح ولو هو لفج

He does not see him; I have tested him [syntax unclear].

His experience does not see

Handsome, even if he is [unclear term].

Handsome even if uncouth

وينتشوا بالوصال

وينتشوا بالوصال

ويشرحوا في المر

ويشرحوا في المر

And they grow drunk on union,

And they rejoice in union

And they expound on bitterness.

And relax in happiness
