1. سلاهُ من كان له عاشقاً

    قبلي لأجل العارض الزائرِ

    He was forgotten by one who had loved him

    before me, because of the down visiting his cheeks.

  2. فقلت لما هام قلبي به

    كم ترك الأولُ للآخرِ

    So I said, when my heart grew mad with love for him:

    “How much the first has left for the last!”
