1. وَسَوْسَناتٍ أَرَتْ مِنْ حُسْنِها بِدَعاً

    وَلَمْ يَزَلْ عَصْرُ مَولانا يُرَى بِدَعَهْ

    And irises that revealed marvels of their beauty;

    And the marvels of our lord's age have never ceased to be seen.

  2. شَبِيهَةٌ بِالثّرَيَّا فِي تَألُّقِها

    وفِي تَأَلُّقِها تَلْتَاحُ مُلْتَمِعَهْ

    Like the Pleiades in their brilliance,

    And in their brilliance they gleam, sparkling.

  3. هَامَتْ بِيُمناهُ تَبْغِي أَنْ تُقَبّلَها

    وَاستَشْرَفَتْ تَجْتَلِي مَرْآهُ مُطَّلِعَهْ

    They fell in love with his right hand, seeking to kiss it,

    And craned upward to behold him, peering forth.

  4. ثُمَّ التَقَى بَعْضُها مِنْ بَعضِها غَلَباً

    عَلَى البِدارِ فَوَافَتْ وَهْيَ مُجْتَمِعَهْ

    Then some met others, vying

    To be first; so they arrived all together.
