1. رُهبانُ مَدينَ والذين عهِدتُهُم

    يبكون من حذر العِقابِ قُعودا

    The monks of Midian and those I have known

    weep, seated, in fear of punishment.

  2. لو يسمعون كما سمعتُ كلامَها

    خَرُّوا لعزةَ رُكَّعاً وسجودا

    Were they to hear her words as I heard them,

    they would fall down before ‘Azza, bowing and prostrating.
