1. زارَت فَشَفى العِناقُ مِنها سَقمي

    تَجلو دُررَ الثَغر وَدُرَّ الكَلِمِ

    She visited, and her embrace cured my illness.

    She reveals the pearls of her mouth and the pearls of her words.

  2. حَلَّت عُقَدَ النِطاقِ وَالنُطقِ بِلا

    خَصرٍ يَقِف العَينُ عَلَيهِ وَفمِ

    She loosened the knots of girdle and speech, without

    A waist upon which the eye could rest, or a mouth.
