تَبَسَّمَ عَنْ أقَاحِ فِي لُجَيْنِ

تَبَسَّمَ عَنْ أقَاحِ فِي لُجَيْنِ

وَأسْفَرَ عَنْ هِلاَلٍ فِي جَبِينِ

وَأسْفَرَ عَنْ هِلاَلٍ فِي جَبِينِ

He smiled, revealing daisies in silver,

Smiled from a cheek set in a dimple,

And unveiled a crescent upon his brow,

And unveiled a crescent on his brow,

وَقَابَلَ خَدَّهُ بِشُعَاعِ رَاحٍ

وَقَابَلَ خَدَّهُ بِشُعَاعِ رَاحٍ

فَخِلْنَا الجمعَ بين النَيِّرَيْنِ

فَخِلْنَا الجمعَ بين النَيِّرَيْنِ

And set his cheek opposite the radiance of wine,

And matched his cheek with the rays of comfort,

So we thought the two luminaries had come together.

So we brought together the two lights.
