دقاقُ قمحٍ مليحٍ

دقاقُ قمحٍ مليحٍ

للبدرِ يدعو علامَهْ

A handsome wheat-grinder

The grinder of choice wheat,

calls to the full moon—but why?

Calls out to the moon its mark,

قدْ رقَّ خصري ونادى

قدْ رقَّ خصري ونادى

هذا الدقيقُ العلامهْ

هذا الدقيقُ العلامهْ

My waist has grown slender, and he called out:

My waist has thinned and called out,

"This fine flour is the learned scholar!"

This is the grinder's mark.
