In a night when the raven folded its wings

وليل بغى فيه الغراب جناحه

1. In a night when the raven folded its wings
And did not separate from it but rather was blind

١. وليلٍ بغى فيهِ الغُرابُ جناحَه
ولم يَنفصل عنهُ ولكنّهُ عمي

2. In the darkness, as if I were in its corners or it had come
Upon an evil crime in the bed of a criminal

٢. دجاً فكأنّي من حناياهُ أو أتى
جريمةَ سوءٍ في سريرةِ مُجرمِ

3. If I say where is the dawn, its shadows overflow
Upon me as if I were crying out to a mute one

٣. إذا قُلتُ أَينَ الصُّبحُ فاضت سدولُهُ
عليَّ كانّي مُستغيثُ بأبكمِ

4. And I am startled by its staring as if it
Were watching for my escape, savior of the secretive

٤. وأفزعُ مِن إطراقهِ فكأنّهُ
يُراصدُ إطلاقي نجيَّ التكتّمِ
