1. As if his eyelids were taken from his lover's body
So they tell of illnesses when he blinks
١. كأَنَّ أَجْفَانَهُ مِنْ جِسْمِ عَاشِقِهِ
قَدْ رُكِّبَتْ فَهْيَ بِالأَسْقَامِ تَحْكِيهِ
2. In his temple is a scorpion stinging the temple
The antidote to its sting, O people, is in it
٢. في صُدْغِهِ عَقْرَبٌ لِلْصُّدْغِ لادِغَةٌ
دِرْياقُ لَدْغَتِها يا قَوْمِ مِنْ فِيهِ
