1. وجهٌ كأنَّ البدرَ ليلةَ تمّهِ

    منهُ استعارَ النُّورَ والإشراقا

    A face—as though the full moon, on the night of its fullness,

    Had borrowed from it light and radiance.

  2. وأَرى عليه حَديقةَ أَضحى لها

    حَدقي وأَحداقُ الأنام نطاقا

    And I see upon it a garden that has come to have

    My pupils and the pupils of humankind as a girdle.
