1. بِروحِيَ ماءُ الحُسنِ راقَ بِوَجهِها

    وَمِنها جَرى ماءُ الحَياءِ بِخدَّينِ

    With my spirit the water of beauty flowed on her face

    And from it ran the water of shyness on her cheeks

  2. فَفي وَجهِها شَمسَين قَد شمت إِن بَدَت

    نَهاراً وَإِن لَيلاً أَرى فيهِ بَدرَينِ

    So on her face are two suns I inhaled when they rose

    By day and by night in it I see two moons
