1. لَمْ تَجْرَحِ السِّكّينُ كَفَّ مُعَذِّبِي

    إِلَّا لِمعنىً حُسْنُه مُتَحَقِّقُ

    The knife did not wound my tormentor’s palm

    except for a reason whose beauty is beyond doubt:

  2. هِي مِثْلُ مَا قَدْ قِيلَ جَارِحةٌ لَهُ

    وَلِكُلّ جَارِحَةٍ إِلَيه تَشَوُّقُ

    It is, as has been said, something that wounds him,

    and every limb yearns for him.
