1. مضنًى يهيمُ بذاتِ الخالِ مِن وَلَهٍ

    يعتادُه وضناهُ مِن علائمهِ

    A love-worn man is enamored of the woman with the beauty mark, driven by passion

    That keeps returning to him; his wasting is among its signs.

  2. لمّا توشّحَتِ الخِلخالَ مِن هَيَفٍ

    بها تَمَنْطَقَ مِنْ سُقْمِ بخاتمهِ

    When, so slender, she wore the anklet as a sash,

    He, sick because of her, girded himself with his ring.
