1. قرطُها خافقٌ وقلبيَ أيضاً

    خافقٌ مِنْ أليمِ صدٍّ وبَيْنِ

    Her earring flutters, and my heart, too,

    Flutters from the pain of rejection and parting.

  2. فاعذروها في العجبِ فَهْيَ فتاةٌ

    أصبحَتْ وَهْيَ تملكُ الخافقَيْنِ

    So excuse her conceit, for she is a maiden

    Who now possesses the two fluttering ones.
