1. And the whiteness of his unblemished skin allured me
His mantle draped about him fold on fold
١. وَأَغَرَّ تِبرِيِّ الإِهابِ مُرَدَّدٍ
سَبطِ الأَديمِ مُحَجَّلٍ بِبَياضِ
2. I fear for him; my arrows he may face
As to the goal he speeds, outpacing me
٢. أَخشى عَليهِ بِأَن يُصابَ بِأَسهُمي
مِمّا يُسابِقُني إِلى الأَغراضِ
