1. لِعَيني كُلَّ يَومٍ مِنكَ حَظٌّ

    تَحَيَّرُ مِنهُ في أَمرٍ عُجابِ

    Each day my eye receives a share from you,

    which leaves it bewildered at a wondrous sight:

  2. حِمالَةُ ذا الحُسامِ عَلى حُسامٍ

    وَمَوقِعُ ذا السَحابِ عَلى سَحابِ

    the baldric of this sword rests upon a sword,

    and this cloud's rain falls upon a cloud.
