لاحَ الهِلال فويق مَغرِبه

وَالزَهرة الزَهراء لَم تَغب

The crescent rose above its setting place

And the pink flower did not set

تَهوي دوين مَغيبها فَهَوَت

تَبكي بِدَمع غَير مُنسَكب

It plunged below its setting place and fell

It cries with unshed tears

فَكَأَنَّها أَسماء باكية

عِندَ اِنفِصام سوارها الذَهبي

As if it were Asma weeping

When her golden bracelet broke
