1. مِمّا حَوَتِ الخَلقَ بُطونُ الأَرضِ

    قَد سالَ بِدَمعها عُيونُ الأَرضِ

    Because the earth's depths have held humankind,

    The earth's springs have flowed with its tears.

  2. فاِذكر لك أَغصانَ قدودٍ دُفِنَت

    إِن هَزَّ عُصونَها مُتونُ الأَرضِ

    So recall for yourself the boughs of figures that were buried,

    If the earth's surfaces shake their branches.
