1. His eyelids denied shedding my blood
And his cheeks blushed, so he confessed
١. أَنكَرَتْ مُقْلَتُهُ سَفْكَ دَمي
وَعَلا وَجنَتَهُ فَاِعتَرَفَتْ
2. Do not think the mole on his cheek
Is a drop of blood from my eyelids that dripped
٢. لا تَخالوا خَالَهُ في خَدّهِ
قَطْرَةً مِن دَمِ جَفْني نَطَفَتْ
3. It is but an ember from my heart's fire
In which it was forged and kindled then erupted
٣. ذاكَ مِن نارِ فُؤادي جَذْوَةٌ
فيهِ ساخَتْ وَاِنْطَفَتْ ثُمَّ طَفَتْ
