لَئِن مَرِضَ الحَبيبُ فَقَد تَحَلّى

مَحَاسِنَ كُلُّنا فيها يَحارُ

If the beloved falls ill, he is adorned

with beauties that leave us all bewildered -

صَفا لَوناً وَراقَ العَينَ حُسناً

فَجاءَ كَأَنَّهُ ذَهَبٌ نُضارُ

His face glows, his eyes shine with charm,

he comes like gilded gold, fresh and tender.
