1. أَصوغ الحُلى في كلِّ يومٍ وليلةٍ

    وأُتْعِبُ منّي في صياغتها النَّفْسا

    I fashion jewelry every day and night,

    and weary my own soul in crafting it.

  2. ولو مُتُّ ضَرّاً ما عَقدْتُ قِلادةً

    على جيدِ مَنْ لا يستحقُّ لها لُبْسا

    And even if I died of hardship, I would never fasten a necklace

    around the neck of one unworthy to wear it.
