It came threatening us with his excessive aloofness
١. بَعَثَ الكِتَابَ بِرُقْعَةٍ مُحْمَرَّةٍ
جَاءَتْ تُهَدِّدُنَا بِفَرْطِ جَفائِهِ
2. So I asked her about him, and she said
He slaughtered affection, and I was some of its blood
٢. فَسَأَلْتُهَا عَنْهُ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّهُ
ذَبَحَ الوِدَادَ فَكُنْتُ بَعْضَ دِمَائِهِ
