لَيسَis not الشَجاعَةُcourage فيin مُصافَحَةِclasping الفَتىthe young man
لَيسَ الشَجاعَةُ في مُصافَحَةِ الفَتى
شُهبَmeteors of الرِماحِthe spears بِوَجهِهِwith his face وَبِنَحرِهِand with his throat
شُهبَ الرِماحِ بِوَجهِهِ وَبِنَحرِهِ
Courage is not in a young man's clasping
the meteors of spears with his face and throat.
إِنَّindeed الشَجاعَةَcourage فيin السُكوتِsilence لِكاذِبbefore a liar
إِنَّ الشَجاعَةَ في السُكوتِ لِكاذِب
عَنabout صِدقِthe honesty of سامِعِthe hearer of كِذبِهِhis lies عَنabout أَمرِهِhis affairs
عَن صِدقِ سامِعِ كِذبِهِ عَن أَمرِهِ
Indeed, courage lies in silence before one who lies
about the honesty of the hearer of his lies about his affairs.
