1. ومؤنّث الألحاظ يف

    تكُ بالمُلاحظِ حين يَلحَظْ

    And one with womanly glances deals

    death to the beholder as he gazes.

  2. غَلُظَ العذولُ عليَّ في

    ه وما بقلبي منه أغْلَظ

    The reproacher was harsh with me about

    him; yet what I harbor in my heart toward him is harsher.

  3. لو مرَّ بالأعمى لأب

    صر أو بعنّينٍ لأنعظ

    Were he to pass by a blind man, the man would

    see; or by an impotent man, that man would get an erection.
