My attempt:

These are the definitions for the girls name "Leyla". They are probably taken from a website such as this one:
http://www.gebelik-rehberi.com/isim/kiz_l.asp

Here is the link to the official website of Turkish Language Institute. They have a dictionary for Turkish peoples names. Almost all names in Turkish have a meaning.

Translations in parenthesis are mine.

Leylâ
Köken (source) : Ar. (Arabic)
Cinsiyet (gender): Kız (female)

Anlam (meaning)
1. Gece. (night)
2. mec. (mecazi> figurative meaning) Saçları gece gibi simsiyah olan kadın (A woman whose hair is dark as night).
3. Arabî ayların son gecesi. (last nights of Arabian months)

Quoting lady in red:

My attempt:
The woman's hair is jet black like the night. In the very dark night it can be seen gleaming



my attempt (basically the same as LIR - though hers is probably right):

Like the dark night the women's hair is jetblack. In the very dark night it can be seen gleaming.

Nice work LIR
