1. لَمّا نَظرت لَهُ وَقُلت مُعاتِباً

    أَفنيت رُوحي في الهَوى بِبعادِها

    When I looked at him and said reproachfully,

    “You have consumed my soul in love by staying away from it,”

  2. صَبَغَ الحَياءُ خُدودَهُ حُمراً وَقَد

    صَبَغَت عُيوني وَجنَتي بِسَوادِها

    Shyness dyed his cheeks red, while

    My eyes had dyed my cheek with their blackness.
