1. تَخفَى عَلَيَّ ذُنُوبُه في حبِّهِ

    ويَرى ذُنوبي قبلَ أَن أَجْنِيها

    His sins are hidden from me in my love for him,

    and he sees my sins before I commit them.

  2. فَكأَنَّه عَيني تَرى عَيبِي وَلا

    يَبْدُو لِيَ العيبُ الّذِي هُوَ فِيها

    So he is like my eye: it sees my flaw, yet

    the flaw within it is not apparent to me.
