1. أيا حسن أعمى لم يجد حد طرفه

    محب غدا سكران فيه وما صحا

    O beauty of a blind man, the sharpness of whose gaze has not been felt

    by a lover who grew drunk on him and never sobered.

  2. إذا طار قلبٌ بات يرعى خدوده

    غدا آمناً من مقلتيه الجوارحا

    Whenever a heart takes flight and spends the night grazing on his cheeks,

    it wakes safe from his two eyes, those birds of prey.
