1. كل من مُلِّك عبداً

    أظهرَ النية قصدا

    Everyone who is given a slave

    Reveals his intention deliberately.

  2. ما لمن حظ بوجهٍ

    حسنٍ أن يتعدى

    No one blessed with a face

    So fair has the right to overstep.

  3. زاهدٌ في وقد نق

    قصته وداً ووجدا

    He is indifferent to me, and I have given him

    Less affection and longing.

  4. إنما تفعل ما تف

    علُ بي من ذاك عمدا

    You only do what you—

    Do to me in that way deliberately.
