1. جالسني شادنٌ كَلِفْتُ بهِ

    في صفةٍ حالُنا بها غَضَّهْ

    A young gazelle I was enamored of sat with me,

    in a portico, where our state was fresh and tender.

  2. دمعيَ ياقوتةٌ على ذهبٍ

    وفوهُ ياقوتةٌ على فِضَّهْ

    My tears are a ruby upon gold,

    and his mouth is a ruby upon silver.
