وأسمر قد لفح السعير اهابه
ينوء بحجز من ثنياته سمر
And a dark one whose skin the blaze has scorched,
Straining beneath dark bands formed from its bends.
إذا ضم أنواع السميط وحط في
بعيدة قعر ماؤها لهب الجمر
When it gathers various roast meats and is lowered into
A deep hollow whose water is the flame of embers,
أتاك بما في ضمنها فكأنه
محب كوى احشاءه الم الهجر
It brings you what lies within, as though it were
A lover whose entrails the pain of separation has seared.
