1. وشادنٍ سألتُهُ يعربُ لي

    شيئاً وقصديَ امتحانُ لُبِّهِ

    And a fawn-like youth I asked to parse for me

    something, my aim being to test his wit.

  2. قالَ سَبَتْ ملاحتي عقولَكم

    فعلٌ وفاعلٌ ومفعولٌ بهِ

    He said, “My beauty has captivated your minds—

    a verb, a subject, and a direct object.”
