1. سالَ في الخَد للحَبيبِ عِذار

    وَهوَ لا شَكَّ سائِلٌ مَرحوم

    A line of down streamed along the beloved's cheek,

    and it is, without doubt, a suppliant shown mercy.

  2. وَسَألت التثامه فَتجنّى

    فَأَنا اليَوم سائِلٌ مَحروم

    I asked to kiss him, but he feigned offense;

    so today I am a suppliant denied.
