1. They said he grew thinner, so ask about him, I told them:
By God, even if he did grow thinner.

2. Did his eyelid grow thinner, and his eyebrow,
Or did his mouth disappear or go absent?

3. He is still the same, with prominent cheekbones,
With tears flowing down his cheek or melting away.

4. I desired him bare, so how could it be now
When beauty has clothed him in a cloak?
