1. وما شيءٌ له حدٌّ وخدٌ

    يكلم من يلامسه بحقه

    And what is a thing with an edge and a cheek,

    that wounds whoever touches it, as is its right,

  2. وكل حلقه من تحت رأسٍ

    وهذا الرأس يصبح تحت حلقه

    and whose entire throat lies beneath a head,

    yet this head comes to lie beneath its throat?
