1. نادَيتُ وَقَد رَنت بِطَرفٍ ساجِ

    تُزهى بِجمالِ مَنظَرٍ وَهّاجِ

    I called out as she gazed with a languid eye,

    Glorying in the beauty of her radiant appearance:

  2. ما أَكثَرَ قَتلاكَ بعين مرضت

    قالَت أَترى يَسلمُ مِنها ناجِ

    “How many you have slain with an eye grown ill!”

    She said, “Do you think anyone escapes it unharmed?”
