1. وشادِنٍ أزْهَى من الطَّاوُوس

    في عِشْقِه مَنِيَّةُ النُّفُوسِ

    And a young gazelle, more resplendent than the peacock—

    In love for him lies the death of souls.

  2. أبْدَى لنا مِن الثَّنايا فَمُه

    سِيناً عسى تكون للتَّنْفيسِ

    His mouth revealed to us, from his front teeth,

    A sīn—may it bring relief.
