1. بَلْبلَتْ مُقْلتُهُ عَقلي وَقَدْ

    سَحَرَتْهُ فَأَرَتْني بَابِلا

    His eye bewildered my mind, and indeed

    bewitched it, then showed me Babylon.

  2. طَرْفُهُ والقَدُّ كادا مُهجَةً

    وَافَقَ النَّاظِرُ فيها القابِلا

    His gaze and stature plotted against a heart;

    the beholder agreed with the receiver concerning it.
