1. وبناتٍ للباقلاءِ تَبَدَّت

    كعُيونٍ تفتَّحَت مِن رُقادِ

    And daughters of the broad bean appeared,

    Like eyes that opened from slumber;

  2. فَبَياضٌ مِنها مكانَ بياضٍ

    وسوادٌ مِنها مكانَ سوادِ

    So their white was in the place of white,

    And their black in the place of black.
