أضنى فؤاديَ ظبي الفرس حين رنا
بمقلة نفثت بالسحر جفناها
My heart yearned like a horse yearns for a doe when she called out
With eyelids that breathed magic at dawn
له محيّاً لو انَّ الشمس ترمقه
لبرقعت خجلاً منه محياها
If the sun were to rise for him as a greeting
It would veil its face in shyness before his
