1. My Master, how did the Messenger turn away from you when
You were not to the kiss of his cheek an aspirant
١. مَوْلَايَ كَيْفَ انْثَنَى عَنْكَ الرَّسُولُ وَلَمْ
تَكُنْ لِوَرْدَةِ خَدَّيهِ بِمُرْتَشِفِ
2. From the sea of that beauty a pearl came to you
So how was it returned unpierced to the shell?
٢. جَاءَتْكَ مِنْ بَحْرِ ذَاكَ الحُسْنِ لُؤْلُؤةٌ
فَكَيْفَ رُدَّتْ بِلا ثَقْبٍ إلى الصَّدَفِ
