وباكيةٍ من غير دمع بأعينٍ

على غير خدّ دائماً تتحدّرُ
And one who weeps, though not with tears from eyes,
With tearless weeping from eyes
forever streaming down, but not upon a cheek.
That forever descend on cheeks not their own

فيطرِبها حُسْن الغِناء فتنعَر
The turner's chant sings through her to her axle;
The director's poet sings of her beauty
the beauty of the singing delights her, so she cries out.
His singing disturbs her, though fair it be, and she frowns

When lovers exhaust the tears of their eyes,
When lovers shed the tears of their eyes
her tears abound despite the copious pouring.
Her copious weeping makes their tears seem but a drizzle
