يقول عذولي ما لدمعك أخضراً

جرى في هوى ظبي غلا في نفاره

'Uduli says, "Why are your tears so green?

They flow in the love of a fleeing gazelle, boiling in its escape.

فقلت صفا دمعي وقابل صدغه

فأبصرت فيه لون آس عذاره

I said, ‘My tears are clear, meet their cheek.’

Then in them I saw the hue of a doe's injury."
