يا ضرةَ الشمس إن عيني

يا ضرةَ الشمس إن عيني

ما ظفرت في الورى بشبهك

ما ظفرت في الورى بشبهك

O rival of the sun, surely my eye

O radiance of the sun, my eyes

has found none among humankind like you.

Have found no likeness of you in existence

مرآتك الآفق ليس تصدى

مرآتك الآفق ليس تصدى

والبدر فيها خيال وجهك

والبدر فيها خيال وجهك

Your mirror is the horizon; it does not tarnish,

Your mirror is the horizon that cannot deter

and the full moon within it is the reflection of your face.

And the moon reflects but the image of your face
