1. بسجعاتٍ قصارٍ فهْيَ تحكي

    ليالي وصلِنا بالرقمتينِ

    With short rhymed prose it tells

    Of the nights we connected by two eyelids

  2. فإن يَرَها ابنُ مُقْلَة قال عنها

    فداؤُكِ مقلتايَ أبي وعيني

    If the son of Muqlla sees them, he would say about them

    You are the ransom for my two eyelids, my father and my eyes
