Lubayna wept with the weeping of one distraught;
My tender one wept a weeping of melancholy
through it her face became a thing of wonder,
Her face became astonished because of it

مِن طَرفِها سِربُ دَمعِها السَرِبِ
because of antimony kohl that was ceaselessly rolled
From an eye whose tears kept on rolling down
from her eye by the flock of her flowing tears,
A swarm of her teardrops swift as the flow

as though, against her yellowing cheek, it were
As if on the yellowness of her cheeks
turquoise gemstones upon gold.
Were jewels of turquoise on gold
