1. تَمشي عَلى الخَزِّ مِن تَنَعُّمِها

    فَتَشتَكي رِجلُها مِن النَزفِ

    She walks on silk, so pampered is she,

    And her foot complains of bleeding.

  2. لَو مَرَّ هارونُ في عَساكِرِهِ

    ما رَفَعَت طَرفَها مِن السَجفِ

    Were Harun to pass amid his armies,

    She would not lift her gaze from behind the curtain.
