بِعِذارِهِ خدّاهُ لِلحُسنِ أَشبها

مُقَلَ الحَبيبِ وَقَد حَكيْنَ قَواضِبا

With reproach he struck his cheek though it resembled beauty

Complaining of his darling though relating trifles

فَكَما غَدا فَوقَ العُيونِ حَواجب

جَعَلَ العِذار على الخُدودِ حَواجِبا

So as brows appeared above the eyes

Reproach made on the cheeks like brows
