خجل الحبيبُ من العتا

بِ فورَّدَ الخدَّ الخَجَلْ

My beloved was ashamed of chiding

So his cheeks blushed with bashfulness

فخشيتُ منه تغضُّباً

فمسحتُ ذلك بالقُبَلْ

I feared his displeasure

So I wiped that away with kisses

مالي وما لعتاب مَن

لو شاء يقتلني قَتَلْ

What is it to me, what is the reproach of one

Who, if he wished, could kill me with death
