1. تعجبتُ مِنْ نهدَيْهِ لو أنَّ لامساً

    أرادَ انقباضاً لمْ تطعْهُ أناملُهْ

    I marveled at his two breasts: if someone touching them

    Wished to draw back, his fingertips would not obey him.

  2. وسالَ عذارٌ لو نحا نفس صبِّهِ

    لجادَ بها فليتقِ اللهَ سائلُهْ

    And cheek-down flowed; if it sought his ardent lover’s soul,

    He would freely give it—so let the one asking him fear God.
