1. لا تسل عن حديث دمعيَ لمَّا

    ظعنَ الركب واستقل الفريق

    Do not ask about the tale of my tears when

    the caravan departed and the company set off.

  2. لوَّنته وأمطرته جفونٌ

    جُرَّ منها الوادي وسالَ العقيق

    Eyelids dyed them and rained them down;

    from them the valley was swept along, and al-‘Aqiq flowed.
