1. صاحِبُ هَذا القَصرِ كَم قُبِّلَت

    ساحَتُهُ أَمسِ وَكَم عُظِّما

    The owner of this palace—how often was

    his courtyard kissed yesterday, and how greatly he was revered!

  2. وَقُدرَةُ القادِرِ في هَدمِهِ

    أَعظَمُ مِنها في بِناءِ السَما

    And the Almighty’s power in demolishing it

    is greater than His power in building the sky.
