فَأَرانا عَجَبا
The cold was swift in its assault,
and so showed us a marvel:
أَخمَدَit quenched النارَthe fire وَلَمand did not تُطbe extinguished (word continues)
أَخمَدَ النارَ وَلَم تُط
فَأcompletes تُطفأ, ‘be extinguished’ فَصارَتand so it became ذَهَباgold
فَأ فَصارَت ذَهَبا
it quenched the fire, yet it did not go
out, and so it turned to gold.
