And the cloud is their nursing breast, its rain their milk.

That open their eyes on their faces.
٢. وَالقَضبُ أَوراقُها مَعاجِرُها
عَلى وُجوهٍ عُيونُها الزَهَرُ
3. So revel in the morn, for soon it will be over -
The presses will whir and the new wine will pour.
٣. فَاِعتَصِرِ اللَهوَ بِالصَبوحِ فَقَد
اَصبَحَتِ المُعصِراتث تَنعَصِرُ
