1. ولَمَّا أتَى الحمَّامَ مَنْ كُنْتُ أشتهِي

    وكنت بها والحمدُ للهِ ذي المَنِّ

    And when the one I desired came to the bathhouse,

    and I was there—praise be to God, Lord of bounty—

  2. فأبْدَتْ ليَ الحمَّامُ مِنْ حُسنِ جسمهِ

    على رغمهِ ما كانَ يَستُرُهُ مِنّي

    the bathhouse revealed to me some of his body's beauty:

    against his will, what he had kept hidden from me.
