قَد نامَ مُنبَطِحاً وَرافِعَ رَأسهِ

فَسَبى عُقولَ النّاسِ وَالنسّاكِ

Lying prone, his head held high,

He captivated people's minds and ascetics alike,

وَالرّدف مِنهُ إذ تَرَجرَجَ راقِصاً

فَكَأَنّهُ دَوّاسَتا حَيّاكِ

His ample hind swaying as he pranced about,

As though weaving for them a lively tapestry.
