Claude 2

  1. أَثبَتُّ ما عايَنتُ مِن نَحوِها

    بِمَحوِ ما عايَنتُ مِن نَحوي

    I confirm what I have seen of her beauty

    With erasure of what I have seen of myself

  2. وَرُحتُ مِن راحِ هَواها وَلا

    أَفَرِّقُ بَينَ السَكَرِ وَالصَحوِ

    I found respite from the wind of her love, yet I

    Do not distinguish between intoxication and sobriety

  3. أَمحو الَّذي أَثبَتُّ مِن حُسنِها

    وَأَشهَدُ الإِثباتَ بِالمَحوِ

    I erase what I confirm of her beauty

    And testify to erasure with confirmation
