1. فديْتُكَ ليسَ ما أولَيْتَ بكْرا

    ولا شُكري لما أوليْتَ بكْرا

    May I be your ransom! What you have bestowed is nothing new,

    Nor is my gratitude for what you have bestowed anything new.

  2. كِلانا صائغٌ فتَصوغُ بِّراً

    تُحَلِّيني بهِ وأصوغُ شُكْرا

    We are both goldsmiths: you fashion kindness

    With which you adorn me, and I fashion gratitude.
