زَنَت مُقلَتي لَمّا رَأَت شَمسَ وَجهِهِ

زَنَت مُقلَتي لَمّا رَأَت شَمسَ وَجهِهِ

وَقَد قَذَفَت بِالدَّمعِ يَهمي وَتَذرفُ

وَقَد قَذَفَت بِالدَّمعِ يَهمي وَتَذرفُ

My eye committed adultery when it saw the sun of his face.

My eyelids flirted when they saw the sun of his face,

And it cast forth tears that stream, and it sheds them.

And they shed tears flowing and pouring down.

وَما لِزِناها ثمَّ حدٌّ كَقَذفِها

وَما لِزِناها ثمَّ حدٌّ كَقَذفِها

وَلَم يَكُ حَدٌّ وَهيَ تَزني وتقذِفُ

وَلَم يَكُ حَدٌّ وَهيَ تَزني وتقذِفُ

And there is no penalty for its adultery, just as none for its casting of tears.

And their flirting had no limit, like their shedding,

And there was no penalty while it committed adultery and cast forth tears.

With no limit, they flirted and poured down.
