1. بَعاداً فَليتَ اليَمَّ دونَكَ أَزبَدا

    وَلَيتَ مَكانَ الطَوقِ مِنكَ المُهَنَّدا

    Away with you! Would that the sea foamed between us,

    and would that an Indian sword replaced the necklace you wear!

  2. أَعَذلاً عَلى أَن أُصحِبَ الجودَ مِقوَدي

    وَأَرهُنَ في كَسبِ المَكارِمِ لي يَدا

    Do you reproach me for yielding my reins to generosity,

    and pledging my hand in pursuit of noble deeds?
