عابوا عَلَيها حُمرةً في شَعرِها
مِن غَيرِ علمٍ وَالدّليل يكذِّبُ
They faulted her for the redness in her hair,
In ignorance—yet the evidence gives them the lie:
سَفَكَت لَواحِظها دَماءَ مُحبِّها
فَبِها يُيَرْنَأُ شَعرها ويخضَّبُ
Her glances spilled her lover’s blood,
And with it her hair is stained and dyed.
