1. I rode through the blackness of darkest night
Whose fangs push away all worries and plight
١. ساوَرْتُ أسْوَدَ منْ ظَلامِ دُجىً
مَنْ نابَهُ فإلى الهُمومِ دُفِعْ
2. I do not say the dawn has arisen with ease
But that its serpent's veil has now been released
٢. أنا لا أقولُ سَطا الصّباحُ بِه
لَكِنْ طَغى ثُعْبانُهُ فرُفِعْ
