إِنَّ العُيونَ عَلى القُلوبِ شَواهِدٌ

فَبَغيضُها لَكَ بَيِّنٌ وَحَبيبُها

Eyes are witnesses over hearts,

So your hatred and love for them is evident.

وَإِذا تَلاحَظَتِ العُيونُ تَفاوَضَت

وَتَحَدَّثَت عَمّا تُجنُّ قُلوبُها

When eyes meet and converse,

They talk of what hearts conceal.

يَنطِقنَ وَالأَفواهُ صامِتَةٌ فَما

يَخفى عَلَيكَ بَرَيئُها وَمُريبُها

They speak though mouths are silent,

So neither the innocent nor the guilty is hidden from you.
