1. The horizon has begun to weep,
And the eyelid of the sky has sunk down.

2. If the earth shows harshness,
He sends his eyes weeping,

3. As if he were a longing lover
Complaining of his love to the air,

4. Hoping that it would soften
The harshness it had shown.

5. Until, when she sent a messenger to please him,
She smiled shyly,

6. And was covered from him in vegetation,
And drew around herself a cloak.
