1. هَل مِثل شِطاط قَدِّهِ مِن غُصنِ

    هَل مِثلُ مُحيّاهُ لِدَفعِ الحُزنِ

    Is there a bough to match his tall, graceful form?

    Is anything like his face for dispelling sorrow?

  2. في خُضرة عارضيهِ أَنعِم نَظَراً

    كَي تُبصِرَ ناضِراً رَبيعَ الحُسنِ

    Gaze closely at the green down on his cheeks,

    So you may behold beauty’s springtime in bloom.
