صل بخدي خديك تلق عجيباً

من معانٍ يحارُ فيها الضميرُ

Join your two cheeks to my cheek, and you will find a wonder

of meanings before which the mind stands bewildered.

فبخديك للربيع رياضٌ

وبخديَّ للدموع غديرُ

For in your cheeks spring has gardens,

while in my cheeks tears have a secluded chamber.
