1. Though fortune turns its back, in time's recess
Are joys unseen that buoy up hope no less.
١. لَئِن نكَسَّ الدهرُ حَظِّي فلِي
لطَائفُ في الغَيْبِ تُحْيِي الرَّجَاءْ
2. Full oft a star, when darkness hides its ray,
Will brighter burn and mount in proud array.
٢. فرُبَّ شِهابٍ إذا نَكَّسُوه
يَزِيدُ اشْتعالاً ويعْلُو سَنَاءْ
