1. في وَجهِهِ دامَ العذارُ وَحُسنهُ

    أَخذَ الجَمال عَنِ الكمالِ وَسَلسلهْ

    On his face the cheek-down endures, and his beauty

    Drew beauty from perfection and linked it in a chain.

  2. قِنديلُ ياقوتٍ أَضاءَ مَحاسِناً

    نَسَجَت علَيهِ مِنَ الزّمرُّدِ سِلسِله

    A ruby lamp illuminated lovely features

    That wove upon it a chain of emerald.
