1. لَيْسَ بِدْعاً وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُكَ فِي

    أَبْهَى مِثَالٍ إِنْ قُلْتُ هَذَا وِإِلاَّ

    It is no wonder, since I have seen you in

    the fairest form, if I say, “This—or nothing!”

  2. مَنْ تَمَنَّى أَنْ يُبْصِرَ الحُسْنَ فِي صُورَةِ

    أُنْسٍ رَآهُ فِي وَجْهِ إِلاَّ

    Whoever wished to behold beauty in a form

    of human warmth saw it in Ella’s face.
