1. How many draughts I sipped from his mouth,
How many an illness of youth thereby I was cured,
١. كَم مِن نخبٍ رشفتُها مِن فيهِ
كَم داءِ صَبابة بِهِ أَشفيهِ
2. Still the mole at his cheek consorting with me,
Till into my heart fluttered the bird of my soul through it.
٢. ما زالَ شِباكُ صُدغه لي شركاً
حَتّى وَقَعَت طَيرُ فُؤادي فيهِ
