1. يا مَن بجَنابه التجاءُ الخاشي

    قَد خِفتُ من الزَمان فاربط جاشي

    O you at whose side the fearful seek refuge,

    I have grown afraid of time; so steady my heart.

  2. ما ضَرَّ سنا الشارِقِ يَنبَثُّ ضُحى

    لَو مَنَّ عَلى الذُرَّةِ بالإِنعاشِ

    What harm would befall the rising sun's radiance, spreading at midmorning,

    If it graciously bestowed new life upon the grain?
