شموس مِن الآداب تَطلع في الدُجى

وَتُلقي عَلى أُفق الضَمير شُعاعَها

Suns of literature rise in the gloom

And cast their rays on the horizon of conscience

مَعانٍ تَوافَت في ضَمير كَأَنَّها

أَمانيُّ قَد صادَفَت مِنها اِجتِماعَها

Meanings converge in a conscience as if they were

Hopes that found their gathering by chance
