An egg left in an ostrich’s nest, and a diver’s pearl,
The brilliance of Udhay and the pearl of a diver,
And a sanctuary’s statue, and a hunter’s gazelle.
The idol of a shrine, and a gazelle of Qanis,

He is the full moon, except that every night
It is the full moon, except that every night
I see the full moon diminished, while he is undiminished.
I see the moon waning, though it loses nought.
