1. وغرير باهي المحيّا أسيل

    مُخجل للغزال بل والغزاله

    And a guileless youth, radiant of face and smooth-cheeked,

    putting the gazelle to shame—indeed, even the sun.

  2. ما أرى الصبّ ناظرا منهُ إلا

    ودعا ناظراهُ أن يا سياله

    I never see the lovesick lover gazing at him without

    his two eyes calling out, 'O Sayyalah!'
