1. رَآني عَدوِّي فَاِنفَعلت وَقَد بَدا

    تَغيّرُ وَجهي حينَما لي قَدِ اِعتَرَض

    My enemy saw me, and I grew agitated; there appeared

    a change in my face when he crossed my path.

  2. أَتاني وَقَد أَبدى الصّداقةَ شامِتاً

    قالَ ما ذا الجال قلت لَهُ مَرَض

    He came to me, showing friendship while gloating.

    He said, “What is this condition?” I told him, “Illness.”
