1. I see my she-camel this morning
Become on the sand a mirage, a phantom.
١. أَرَى نَاقَتِي اليومَ قَدْ أَصْبَحَتْ
عَلَى الأَيْنِ ذاتَ هِبَابٍ نَوَارَا
2. She saw perdition in the arid tract -
And was about to bellow in distress for that.
٢. رَأَتْ هَلَكًا بِنِجَافِ الغَبِيطِ
فَكَادَتْ تَجُدُّ لذاكَ الهِجَارَا
