عذارcheek-down حبيmy beloved لامthe letter lām
عذار حبي لام
والثغرand the mouth كالميمlike the letter mīm أضحىbecame
والثغر كالميم أضحى
My beloved’s cheek-down is a lām;
and his mouth has become like a mīm.
وعذّليand my reproachers فيهconcerning him ولواthey turned away
وعذّلي فيه ولوا
مذwhen عاينواthey saw الصدغthe temple-lock كالحاlike the letter ḥāʾ
مذ عاينوا الصدغ كالحا
And those who reproached me over him turned away
when they saw his temple-lock like a ḥāʾ.
