1. دعني أقبلْ راحتيك فكم يدٍ

    لهما عليّ عجزتُ عن شكري لها

    Let me kiss your two palms, for many are the favors

    They have bestowed on me, for which I have been unable to give thanks.

  2. وأقبل ليمناك الكريمة مبسماً

    رمزاً لأني أشتهي تقبيلها

    And I kiss a smiling mouth for your generous right hand,

    As a token, for I long to kiss it.
