1. The arrows of his eyelids turned away from me
So their slaughter was swift and their ardour grew
١. سِهامُ جُفونِه أعْرضْنَ عنِّي
فأسْرعَ فَتْكُها ونَما جَواهَا
2. Oh if only arrows made archers deaf
Whenever they aimed at anything but the target
٢. فيالَكِ أسْهُما تُصْمِى الرَّمايَا
إذا قصَدتْ إلى شيءٍ سِواهَا
