1. أغْرى بيَ الشّامتُ ألْحاظَهُ

    وما دَرَى أنّي مهجورُ

    The gloater incited his glances against me,

    and did not know that I am forsaken.

  2. فإنْ شكَتْ أسْيافُها منْ دَمي

    يَقولُ للألْحاظِ مَهْ جُوروا

    So if their swords complain of my blood,

    he says to the glances, “Enough! Be unjust!”
