1. فَرَدَّت أَعيُنَ الرُّقَبَاءِ حَيرَى

    بِألحَاظٍ كَأَلحَاظِ المَرُوعِ

    So she left the watchers’ eyes bewildered,

    with glances like those of one stricken with fear.

  2. وَلَم يَكُ فِيَّ إِذ رَحَلُوا سِوَى أَن

    أُغَازلُهُم بِأطرَافِ الدُّمُوعِ

    And when they departed, I had nothing in me but

    to woo them with the edges of tears.
