رأيته بعد حينٍ من ملاحته

وقد محا الله منه رونقَ الخفرِ

I saw him after a while since I last saw him

God had erased from him the grace of youth

وعفش الحسن ذاك الوجه حين خبا

ديباج خديه في مسحٍ من الشعر

And the beauty of that face had grown disorderly when it withered

The damask of his cheeks in a stroke of white hair
