Sol 6.1

  1. قسماً بها وبودها وبعدها

    وبخدها وجبينها والخال

    I swear by her, by her affection and her distance,

    And by her cheek, her brow, and her beauty mark:

  2. إني على العهد القديم بحبها

    باقٍ وإن لام العذول الخالي

    Indeed, to the old pledge of love for her

    I remain true, though the reproacher, untouched by love, blames me.

  3. وبها تجرد جسم قلبي وانتحى

    عن حزب أعمامي وآل الخالي

    And through her, my heart's body stripped itself bare and turned away

    From the faction of my paternal uncles and my maternal uncle's kin.
