1. كَتَبتُ إِلى الحَبيبِ بِكَسرِ عَيني

    كِتاباً لَيسَ يَقرَؤُهُ سِواهُ

    I wrote to the beloved with the breaking of my eyes

    A letter no one would read but him

  2. فَأَخبَرَني تَوَرُّدُ وَجنَتَيهِ

    وَكَسرُ جُفونِهِ أَن قَد قَراهُ

    His blushing cheeks told me

    And his tearful eyes that he had read it
