1. وآلوا الأمور واحناءَها

    فلم يُبْهِلوها ولم يُهْمِلوا

    And they managed affairs and their various aspects.

    So they neither left them untended nor neglected them.

  2. وكان الأباطِحُ مثل الأريِنَ

    وشُبِّه بالحِفوَةِ المُنقَلُ

    And the pebbly streambeds were like fire pits.

    And the shod man was as though barefoot.
