1. إِنَّ الَّتي هامَ الأَنامُ بِحُسنِها

    وَلَها المَلاحَةُ وَالبَها وَجدي بِها

    Indeed, she whose beauty has enraptured humankind—

    And hers are loveliness and splendor—my passion is for her.

  2. بِسُفورِها تُخفى وَفي أَستارِها

    تَبدو فَمَشرِقُ شَمسِها في غَربِها

    Through her unveiling she is hidden, and within her veils

    She appears, for her sun's rising lies in its setting.
