1. أغيدُ عبريٌّ لهُ عِمَةٌ

    حَكَتْ منَ العشّاقِ ألوانا

    A graceful Hebrew youth has a turban

    that has mirrored the lovers’ hues.

  2. لقدْ سبى بالنورِ شمسَ الضحى

    فهل أتى مِنْ آلِ عِمرانا

    Indeed, with radiance he has captivated the midmorning sun;

    so has he come from the house of ʿImrān?
