1. عرَضْنَ فعرّضْنَ القلوبَ من الهَوَى

    لأسْرَعَ في كيِّ القُلوبِ من الجَمْرِ

    They appeared and, through passion, exposed hearts

    to what sears hearts faster than embers.

  2. كأن الشِّفاهَ اللُّعْسَ منها خواتِمٌ

    من التِّبْرِ مختومٌ بِهنَّ على الدُّرْ

    As though their dusky lips were signet rings

    of gold, with which a seal is set upon pearls.
