1. وَغادَةٍ تَخطو كَخوطِ البانِ

    ساحِرَةِ الأَلحاظِ وَالأَجفانِ

    And a graceful maiden who steps like a bān-tree shoot,

    With bewitching glances and eyelids;

  2. عَلى سَماءِ جيدِها الفِتيانِ

    جَوزاءُ عِقدٍ وَهِلالُ جانِ

    Upon the sky of her neck are the youths:

    A necklace’s Orion and a serpent’s crescent.
