1. لَمّا رَأَت أَثَرَ السَنانِ بِخَدِّهِ

    ظَلَّت تُقابِلُهُ بِوَجهٍ عابِسِ

    When she saw the spearpoint's mark on his cheek,

    She kept facing him with a frown.

  2. خَلَفَ السِنانُ بِهِ مَواقِعَ لَثمِها

    بِئسَ الخِلافَةُ لِلمُحِبِّ البائِسِ

    The spearpoint took over the places of her kisses there—

    What a dreadful replacement for the hapless lover!
