لَيسَ السَليمُ سَليمَ أَفعى حَرَّةٍ
لَكِن سَليمَ المُقلَةِ النَجلاءِ
The one unhurt is not unhurt from a heated snakebite,
But unhurt by a glance, tender, languid,
نَظَرَت وَلا وَسَنٌ يُخالِطُ عَينَها
نَظَرَ المَريضِ بِسَورَةِ الإِغفاءِ
She looked, no tooth interfered with her eye,
The invalid looked with the surah of fainting.
