1. ملوكٌ يحوزون الممالِكَ عُنْوةً

    بِسُمْرِ العَوَالِي أَو ببيضِ القواضِب

    Kings who seize kingdoms by force,

    with brown, lofty spears or bright, keen-edged swords.

  2. رماحٌ بأَيديهم طوالٌ كأَنَّما

    أَرادُوا بها تثقيبَ دُرِّ الكَواكِب

    Long are the spears in their hands, as though

    they intended with them to pierce the pearls of the stars.
