1. The blackness of lovers' eyes is their excuse
When drawn to the fire of his cheeks during embrace
١. سَوادُ عُيونِ العاشِقينَ عِذاره
إِلى نارِ خَدَّيهِ لَدى الجَذبِ صارا
2. It made waters flow, for it has cast him
Towards her sides, so it became an excuse
٢. فَسالَ بِها ماءً لَقَد قَذَفَت بِهِ
لِنَحوِ حَواشيها فَصارَ عِذارا
