He glimpses from every frowning face, sullen,

يلمحن من كل غميس مبقل

1. He glimpses from every frowning face, sullen,
He made manifest the keen-eyed one's vision unobstructed,

١. يَلْمَحْنَ مِنْ كُلِّ غَمِيسٍ مُبْقِلِ
جَلَّى بَصِيرَ العَيْنِ لَمْ يُكَلَّلِ

2. So he plunged downwards, falling from far-off heights,
Verily, Sulaiman is our choicest son of Ali,

٢. فَانْقَضَّ يَهْوِي مِنْ بَعِيدِ المَخْتَلِ
إِنَّ سُلَيْمانَ اشْتَلانا ابْنَ عَلِي

3. Why, you do not scoop it out with a shovel!

٣. ما لَكَ لا تَجرُفُها بِالقَنْقَلِ
لا خَيْرَ في الكَمْأَةِ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلِ
