بأبي أعورُ عينٍ أنورٌ

مثلُ بدرِ التمِّ والبدرُ بعين

By my father, who though one-eyed, possesses a luminous vision

Like the full moon but the full moon through his eye

طرفُهُ الواحدُ عضبٌ ذكرٌ

فلهُ في الحسنِ حظُّ الأنثيينِ

His singular gaze is a male, angry and glorious

So in beauty he claims the fortune of both sexes
