بَدرُ حُسنٍ في كَفِّه شِمت مِسكاً

وَبِخَدَّيْهِ شمت أَحسَنَ خالِ

The full moon of beauty held musk in its palm,

And on its cheeks held the best moles.

قُلتُ ماذا فَقالَ مِسك غزالٍ

قُلت ما الخالُ قالَ مِسك جَمالِ

I said what is this? It said the musk of a gazelle.

I said what are the moles? It said the musk of beauty.
