وَعاوَدَها بَعضُ أَطراقِها
His eye refused to taste sleep,
And some of its nightly visitations returned to it.
وَسَهَّدَهاand kept it awake بعدَafter نَومِsleep العِشاءِthe evening
وَسَهَّدَها بعدَ نَومِ العِشاءِ
تَذكُرُremembering نَبليmy arrows وَأَفواقِهاand their nocks
تَذكُرُ نَبلي وَأَفواقِها
And after evening sleep, it was kept awake
By the memory of my arrows and their nocks.
