1. مَنْ قالَ بالمردِ فإني امرؤٌ

    إلى النسا ميلي ذواتِ الجمال

    Whoever favors beardless youths—as for me, I am a man

    Whose inclination is toward women endowed with beauty.

  2. ما في سويدا القلبِ إلا النسا

    ما حيلتي ما في السويدا رجال

    In the heart’s dark core are women alone.

    What can I do? There are no men in the dark core.
