أَما تَرى ما أَراهُ أَيُّها المَلِكُ

أَما تَرى ما أَراهُ أَيُّها المَلِكُ

كَأَنَّنا في سَماءِ مالَها حُبُكُ

كَأَنَّنا في سَماءِ مالَها حُبُكُ

Do you not see what I see, O king?

Do you not see what I see, O King

Do you not see what I behold, O King?

As though we were in a sky with no woven paths.

As if we were in a sky that was lit by your love

As if we dwell in skies devoid of tracks;

الفَرقَدُ اِبنُكَ وَالمِصباحُ صاحِبُهُ

الفَرقَدُ اِبنُكَ وَالمِصباحُ صاحِبُهُ

وَأَنتَ بَدرُ الدُجى وَالمَجلِسُ الفَلَكُ

وَأَنتَ بَدرُ الدُجى وَالمَجلِسُ الفَلَكُ

The Farqad star is your son, and the lamp is his companion.

The Pleiades are your sons, and the lamp is their companion

The Farqad star your son, the lamp his peer,

And you are the full moon in night's darkness, and the gathering is the celestial sphere.

You are the full moon of dusk, and the gathering is the sky

You are the Moon of Night; the court, the Sphere.
