غزالٌ سما بالبها خلقةً
ويفضح بدرَ الدجى في إكتمال

ويزداد للشمس من حسنه
بهاءٌ جميلٌ وحسن الكمال

له القدّ يحكي لسمر القنا
وثغرٌ شنيبٌ وجيدٌ وخال

سباني هواه فقلت له
تلطّفْ عليّ أميرُ الجمال

فهل لي بوصلك يا أملي
ليذهبَ سقمي فقال تنال

A gazelle rose divinely in her beauty upon the sky
she outshines the full moon on a dark, starless night

She increases the sun's splendour with her beauty
her beautiful radiance and grace of perfection

Her stature speaks of[1] her dark spear-like nose
and her fine shining teeth, her elegant long neck, and her mark of beauty

"May your longing take me captive!", I said unto her
Be gentle with me, my princess of beauty

may I attain your companionship, my hope?
so that my anguish may depart, and she said: you shall attain
