1. The fault lies not in him, but my eyes that gazed-
Never have they seen in this world a finer man.
١. مَا خَالُهُ غيرض أنَّ العينَ ما نظرت
أحلى وأحسَنَ مِنهُ الدَّهرِ إنسانا
2. So struck was I by his sight, I clean forgot-
A mere mortal rested upon my cheek that day.
٢. فاستحَسَنت ما رَأَت مِنهُ فَحينَ أَبَت
مَدهوشةٌ نَسِيت في الخَدِّ إِنسانا
