I ransom the one whose words are embers

فديت من ألفاظه جذوة

1. I ransom the one whose words are embers
That kindle, while his lips are cool

١. فَدَيْتُ مَن ألفاظُه جَذْوةٌ
تُذْكي ومَن مَلْثَمُه باردُ

2. When I complained to him of passion
While yearning slumbers and sickness increases

٢. لَمَّا تشكِّيتُ إليه الهوى
والشوقُ نامٍ والجوى زائد

3. He sent in an apple his cheek
To me, so the envious one would not perceive

٣. أرسل في تُفَّاحةٍ خَدّه
إليّ كَيْلاَ يفطن الحاسِدُ

4. Its color in its color is evident
And its saliva in its taste condensed

٤. فلونُه في لونها ظاهِرٌ
ورِيقُه في طعمها جامِدُ
