1. فَدَيتُ مَن أَرسَلَ تُفّاحَةً

    إِرسالُها دَلَّ عَلى فِطنَتِه

    I would give my life for the one who sent an apple;

    sending it revealed his discernment.

  2. وَقَصدُهُ أَنّي إِذا ذُقتُها

    تَشتَدُّ أَشواقي إِلى رُؤيَتِه

    And his intent was that, when I tasted it,

    my longings to see him would grow stronger.

  3. فَاللَونُ مِن خَدَّيهِ وَالطَعمُ مِن

    ريقَتِهِ وَالطيبُ مِن نَكهَتِه

    For its color is from his cheeks, and its taste from

    his saliva, and its fragrance from his breath.
