كفمlike the mouth of الحبيبthe beloved كطرفهlike his gaze
كفم الحبيب كطرفه
كقويمlike the upright form of قامتهhis stature كظهريlike my back
كقويم قامته كظهري
Like the beloved’s mouth, like his gaze;
Like his upright stature, like my back;
كإشارتيlike my gesture فيin قبلةa kiss
كإشارتي في قبلة
كجوابlike the answer of نذلa base man غيرnot حرnoble
كجواب نذل غير حر
Like my gesture in a kiss;
Like the answer of a base man, not a noble one.
