ونسوة لمنني في حب ذي كحل
رشا يفوح شميم المسك من فيه
And women blamed me for loving a kohl-eyed one—
a fawn from whose mouth the fragrance of musk wafts.
فقلت منهن للائي فتن به
فذلكن الذي لمتنني فيه
So I said to those among them who fell under his spell:
“That, then, is the one for whose sake you blamed me.”
