1. تنازَع فيه الشوقَ قلبي وناظرِي

    فأثَّر فيه الطَّرْفُ والقلبُ ناصِبُ

    My heart and my eye vied in longing for him.

    So the gaze left its mark on him, while the heart was weary.

  2. وتنْظُره من قلبيَ الصَّبِّ أعْيُنٌ

    عليها لِمَحْنِيِّ الضُّلوعِ حَواجِبُ

    And eyes from my lovesick heart behold him;

    Above them are brows formed by the curved ribs.
