1. And in it is a mosque’s arched niche, plain to see,

    Entered neither for prayer nor for worship.

  2. We offer it beautiful images of figurines,

    Till one wonders: is it a qibla or a temple?

  3. And in it is jarring song that has not passed into

    An ear, but is perceived through the eyes.

  4. For from his second son comes the ‘heavy’ rhythm when he sits with knees clasped

    In a gathering—and he is the ‘first heavy’ one.
