1. And a night as cold and dark as a raven's face
As long as the horns of Jonah and Abu Khadr
١. وَلَيلٍ كَوَجهِ الزاغِ بَرداً وَظُلمَةً
وَطولاً كَقرني يونسٍ وَأَبي خَضرِ
2. I missed my loved ones in its length and gloom
As sanity was missed by Baha bin Abu Yusr
٢. عَدِمتُ الكَرى فيهِ وَطولَ هُجودِهِ
كَما عَدمَ العَقل البَها بنُ أَبي اليُسرِ
