حَواجِبُهُ قِسيٌ وأَجفانُه نَبل

وقامتُه الخَطِّيُّ والناظِر النَّصلُ

His eyebrows are stern, his eyelids arrowheads,

His stature straight as a reed, his gaze a rapier.

تَجَيَّشَ في جَيشٍ من الحُسنِ وارتَدَى

رِداء جَمالٍ طَرزُهُ الحدق النُّجلُ

He marched in an army of beauty and wore

A garment of splendor embroidered by starlight.
