أُخَيَّ هذا هو القاموس مختَصَرا
ضَمَّت صحائِفه في طَيِّها عَجَبا
Dear little brother, here is the dictionary in brief;
Its pages hold wonders within their folds.
يجاوِرُ اللَفظُ فيه اللَفظَ يَنفحُه
معنىً يكون له إِن ينتَسِب نَسَبا
One word sits beside another there, breathing into it
a meaning that becomes its own whenever they are kin.
