وَلَقَدand indeed رَأيتُI saw لِرِدفهِin his rump
وَلَقَد رَأيتُ لِرِدفهِ
مَعwith خِصرهِhis waist أَمراًa thing عَجيباwondrous
مَع خِصرهِ أَمراً عَجيبا
And indeed I saw in his rump
I saw something strange
together with his waist a wondrous thing:
Behind his waist
تَلٌّa hill تَحمّلbore نِملةًan ant
تَلٌّ تَحمّل نِملةً
أَمor نِملَةٌan ant حَملَتcarried كَثيباa sand dune
أَم نِملَةٌ حَملَت كَثيبا
Was it a hill that bore an ant,
Was it an ant-hill carrying an ant
or an ant that carried a sand dune?
Or an ant carrying an ant-hill?
