Never glance at the one you are besotted
Do not scorn the one you take too lightly
With, when a watcher keeps watch over him.
When he has a watcher over him

وَغَطِّ بِالأَطرافِ وَجهَ الهَوى
فَلَيسَfor … do not تَخفىgo unnoticed لَحَظاتُthe glances of المُريبone who arouses suspicion
فَلَيسَ تَخفى لَحَظاتُ المُريب
And veil the face of passion with your eyelids;
And veil with modesty the face of passion
For a suspect's glances do not go unnoticed.
For the glances of the wary do not go unseen
