1. تاهَت بِوَجهٍ أَزهَرِ

    وَزَهَت بِطَرفٍ أَحوَرِ

    She bore herself proudly with a radiant face,

    and gloried in dark eyes with brilliant whites.

  2. رودٌ كَأَنَّ بَنانَها

    قَصَبُ العَقيقِ الأَحمَرِ

    A tender maiden, whose fingers are like

    rods of red carnelian.

  3. قَد بَغَّضَت أَنفاسُها

    لِلناسِ ريحَ العَنبَرِ

    Her breath has made hateful

    to people the scent of ambergris.
