1. كأن هضاب الرمل لما تدرجت

    بأيدي رياح الجو حين تبين

    As though the sand dunes, when rippled

    by the hands of the winds aloft, as they appear,

  2. جبين لبعض الروم أبيض واضحٌ

    وما درجته الريح فيه غصون

    were a clear white brow of one of the Romans,

    and the ripples the wind made upon it were branches.
