1. Khalid has been since he was a child
A suckling babe whose greatest care was toys
١. لم يزل خالدٌ لَدُن كانَ طِفلاً
مُرْضَعاً والأيورُ أكبرُ هَمِّهْ
2. He was toddling, sucking his father's teats
And clinging long to his mother's breasts
٢. كان قِدْماً يَمُصُّ أيْرَ أبيه
ويُطيل الصدودَ عن ثدْي أُمِّهْ
