1. Your sweet saliva was honey
Where the lovers are flies gathered
١. إِنَّمَا كَانَ رِيقُكَ الْعَذْبُ شُهْداً
حَيْثُ أَهْلُ الْهَوَى ذُبَابٌ مُكِبَّهْ
2. Then when you frowned, they all flew away
Nothing drives away flies like a frown
٢. ثُمَّ لَمَّا الْتَحَيْتَ طَارُوا جَميِعاً
مَا لِطَرْدِ الذُّبَابِ مِثْلُ الْمَكَبَّهْ
