أَنا مِنكَ بَينَ مَراتِعٍ

أَنا مِنكَ بَينَ مَراتِعٍ

وَمِنَ الرِجالِ عَلى دِمَنْ

وَمِنَ الرِجالِ عَلى دِمَنْ

With you I am amid pastures,

I am from you among pastures

and with other men, upon ruined campsites.

And from men above ignominy

ما كانَ تَعدوكَ المُنى

ما كانَ تَعدوكَ المُنى

لَو قيلَ لي يَوماً ثَمَنْ

لَو قيلَ لي يَوماً ثَمَنْ

My wishes would not go beyond you,

Destiny could not exceed you

if one day I were told, 'Name a price.'

If I were told one day the price

كَم أَسكَرَتني بِنتُ صَد

كَم أَسكَرَتني بِنتُ صَد

رٍ مِنكَ فيها بِنتُ دَنْ

رٍ مِنكَ فيها بِنتُ دَنْ

How often a daughter of the breast has intoxicated me—

How intoxicated was I by the daughter of Saddar

from you, with a daughter of a wine jar within her—

From you, in her the daughter of Dan

مَنضورَةً في حُسنِها

مَنضورَةً في حُسنِها

وَالنَضرُ يُعرَفُ في اليَمَنْ

وَالنَضرُ يُعرَفُ في اليَمَنْ

gilded in her beauty;

Infused in her beauty

and gold is known in Yemen.

And radiance is known in Yemen
