1. فيما نشبه خال هذا الأغيد

    وبما نمثل خده الزاهي الندي

    To what shall we liken this graceful youth’s beauty spot?

    And to what shall we compare his radiant, dewy cheek?

  2. الخال حبة أثمدٍ لا تنثني

    والخد شمسٌ عينها لم ترمد

    The beauty spot is a grain of antimony that does not bend,

    And the cheek is a sun whose eye has not grown sore.
