1. لي مطرب كملت محاسن وصفه

    متأدب الحركات والتسكين

    I have a musician whose fine qualities are perfect,

    well-mannered in movement and stillness.

  2. فإذا دعاه لمجلسٍ ندماؤُهُ

    يأتى ويجلس فيه بالقانون

    Whenever his drinking companions invite him to a gathering,

    he comes and sits there with the qanun.
