لَعِبْتُ بالشَّطْرَنْجِ مَع شَادنٍ

رَشاقَةُ الأَغْصَانِ مِنْ قَدّهِ

I played chess with a slender, willowy one,

The supple branches were from his waist,

أَحُلُّ عَقْدَ البَنْدِ مِنْ خَصْرهِ

وَأَلثُمُ الشّاماتِ مِنْ خَدّهِ

I untie the knot of his belt from his hips,

And I kiss the moles on his cheek.
