قالواthey said لنَاto us باقلٌBaqil وَليhas departed فَقُلتُso I said لَهُمto them
قالوا لنَا باقلٌ وَلي فَقُلتُ لَهُم
ماnot ماتَhas died مَنwhoever ماتَdied عَنleaving behind أَهلٍfamily وَعَنand leaving behind وَلَدِoffspring
ما ماتَ مَن ماتَ عَن أَهلٍ وَعَن وَلَدِ
They told us, “Baqil is gone,” so I said to them:
“Whoever dies leaving family and offspring has not died.
فيin كُلِّevery يَومٍday كِلابُdogs السُّوقِof the marketplace نقتُلهاwe kill them
في كُلِّ يَومٍ كِلابُ السُّوقِ نقتُلها
وَكلَّand every يَومٍday كِلابُdogs السوقِof the marketplace فيin البَلَدِthe town
وَكلَّ يَومٍ كِلابُ السوقِ في البَلَدِ
Every day we kill the dogs of the marketplace,
Yet every day there are dogs of the marketplace in town.”
