1. وَمُحَرِّقٍ طاقَينِ مِن سَبَجٍ

    في عاجِ وَجهٍ لاحَ كَالسُرُجِ

    And one who burns two arches of jet

    into the ivory of a face that shone like lamps.

  2. أَجسامُنا بِالسُقمِ قَد فَنِيَت

    فَسَلوا مَحاسِنَهُ عَنِ المُهَجِ

    Our bodies have wasted away with sickness;

    so ask his beauties about our souls.
