بِرَبْعِ فِنائِنا دَخْلاً وخَرْجا
As though the presence of one after another,
As if the existence of this after this
In our courtyard's precincts, coming in and going out,
Is entering and leaving our demise by a quarter

Were a reader's book: if he rolls up one scroll
A book being read, if it ascends a degree
Of paper, he unrolls another from it.
Of papers, it spreads out a degree
