وأَوانِسٍ هِيفِ الخُصورِ إِذا مَشَتْ

وَدَّتْ غُصونٌ أَنّهُنَّ قُدودُ

And friends in seclusion when they walked,

Branches leaned down as if they were affectionate.

وَبِكُلِّ مَرْمَى نَظْرَةٍ مِنْ وامِقٍ

تَحْكي مَبَاسِمُهُنَّ فيه عُقودُ

And with every glance from languishing eyes,

Their smiles related love stories there.

خَدٌّ وَخالٌ يُعْشَقانِ كَأَنَّما

نُقِطَتْ بِحبّاتِ القُلوبِ خُدودِ

A cheek and a mole were so lovable, as if

Love beads were dotted on the cheeks.
