1. وَيَوم رَأَيت السّحبَ فيهِ تَراكَمَت

    وَمِنها أَرى حبّ الغَمامِ قَدِ اِنصَبّا

    And on a day when I saw the clouds gather,

    And from them I see grains of hail pouring down,

  2. تَوارَت بِها شَمسُ الضّحى عَن عُيونِنِا

    وَرَشَّت عَلَينا السّحبُ لُؤْلؤُها الرّطبا

    The morning sun was hidden by them from our eyes,

    And the clouds sprinkled their moist pearls upon us.
