1. شافعي قل لمالكي أن في ن

    ثره سطرين منه للفقر صرفَه

    My intercessor, tell my master that in his—

    writing two lines lies a means for him to ward off poverty.

  2. أترى هل يحجّ فيٌّ وفي ق

    لبي جمار وعند حاليَ وقفَه

    Do you think a faithful man would make the pilgrimage, while in my—

    heart are embers, and before my plight he pauses?
