1. O morning dew, why do you still suppose
That when you bade me bring Al-Jawhari's book
١. أبَحْرَ النَّدَى مَا بَالُ ظَنِّكَ بَعْدَمَا
أمَرْتَ بِإعْطَائِي كِتَابَ الجَوَاهِرِي
2. I have no right to chide you that no gems
Were given me, for it is the sea's way to hug
٢. وَلاَ عَتْبَ لِي إذْ لَمْ تُنِلْنِي جَوَاهِراً
فَمِنْ عَادَةِ البَحْرِ احْتِبَاسُ الجَوَاهِرِ
