لو كنتِ حبيبتي.. زَمنَ الشِعر

Law kunti habibati.. zaman al-shi'r

If you were my beloved, time of poetry

ملأتُ خزائِنَكِ أشعار

Mala'tu khaza'inaki ash'ar

I would fill your treasuries with poems

وأعرتُ جَبينَك ضوءَ الشمس

Wa a'artu jabeenaki daw' al-shams

And lend your forehead the light of the sun

وغزلتُ جدائِلَكِ أقمار

Wa ghazaltu jada'ilaki aqmar

And weave your braids into moons

وجعلتُ مِنـكِ سَيـدةً

Wa ja'altu minki sayyidah

And make you a lady

مِنها الحسناواتُ تغـار..

Minha al-hasanawat taghaar..

Whom beautiful women would envy..

لو كُنتِ حبيبتي سيّدتي

Law kunti habibati sayyidati

If you were my beloved, my lady

كنتُ أسكنتُكِ في لغتي

Kuntu askantuki fi lughati

I would house you in my language

وجَعلتُ عيونَكِ مَدرستي

Wa ja'altu 'uyoonaki madrasati

And make your eyes my school

وبقيتُ أغازِلُ حُسنهما

Wa baqeetu ughazil husnahuma

And I would continue to flirt with their beauty

ليلَ نَهار..

Laylan nahar..

Night and day..

Lines explained

“وغزلتُ جدائِلَكِ أقمار”

Wa ghazaltu jada'ilaki aqmar

And weave your braids into moons

This line uses a beautiful metaphor, comparing the woman's braids to moons, suggesting their radiant beauty and perhaps their dark, flowing nature.

“كنتُ أسكنتُكِ في لغتي”

Kuntu askantuki fi lughati

I would house you in my language

To 'house you in my language' implies that she would become the central theme and inspiration for all his poetry and expression, making her an integral part of his identity as a poet.

“وجَعلتُ عيونَكِ مَدرستي”

Wa ja'altu 'uyoonaki madrasati

And make your eyes my school

Making her eyes his 'school' means he would constantly learn from and be inspired by her gaze, finding endless depth and wisdom in them.
