1. كَنَبْتُ وَلَحظي قد تَبدَّلَ نَرجساً

    بورْد وَدَمعي قَدْ تَساقطَ مَنْثورا

    I grew and my gaze has changed into a narcissus

    My tears have fallen scattered like rose petals

  2. وَلي زمناً يا نور لم أركم به

    وَغَايةُ بُرء العين أَنْ تُبصِرَ النّورا

    And I have a time, O light, when I did not see you

    The pinnacle of innocence is for the eye to see the light
