وَما ظَفِرَت عَيني غَداةَ لَقيتُها

بِشَيءٍ سِوى أَطرافِها وَالمَحاجِرِ

And naught my eyes obtained when I met her

Save her lashes and pupils, nothing further.

وَحَوراءَ مِن حورِ الجِنانِ غَريرَةٍ

يَرى وَجهَهُ في وَجهِها كُلُّ ناظِرِ

Like a houri of Paradise, charming, witty,

In her face each gazer his own face sees glitter.
