أَنـامُ مِلءَ جُفوني عَن شَوارِدِهــا ... وَيَسهَرُ الخَلقُ جَرّاها وَيَختَصِمُ
وَجـــاهِلٍ مَدَّهُ في جَهلِهِ ضَحِكي ... حَتّى أَتَتهُ يَدٌ فَرّاسَــــــةٌ وَفَـــــمُ
`);
/*=> `انا الذي نظر الاعمي الي ادبي ... واسمعت كلماتي من به صمم
انام ملء جفوني عن شواردها ... ويسهر الخلق جراها ويختصم
وجاهل مده في جهله ضحكي ... حتي اتته يد فراسه وفم
`
