1. طلقت أبكار القوافي التي

    كم معها في بيتِ شعرٍ أوَيت

    I have divorced the maiden rhymes with whom

    I so often took shelter in a house of verse.

  2. فلا وَوَقتٍ كانَ للشعر لا

    يجمعنا من بعد ذا سقفُ بيت

    Nay, by the time that once belonged to poetry, no

    Roof of a house shall bring us together after this.
