1. وبي سالم الأحشاء من ألم الهوى

    نظرتُ إليه نظرةً جلبت حتفي

    And I love one whose heart is untouched by love’s pain.

    I looked at him—a glance that brought me death.

  2. فيا آخذي أجفانه بظلامتي

    دعوها فما أصمى فؤادي سوى طرفي

    So, you who hold his eyelids to account for wronging me,

    Leave them be: my own gaze alone dealt my heart its deathblow.
