1. Behold al-Zuqzuq’s young man, taking pity on the—

    —starling, not to admonish or rebuke.

  2. God has brought together—and He is all-powerful—

    the quarry of the land and the quarry of the sea.

  3. Two brothers through the kinship of affection, never

    tried by any hunter other than Time.

  4. One gaunt, the other stout as a pampered stallion-camel, they are

    a marvel to anyone with eyes and thought:

  5. that this one should be in a sea of his own plenty,

    while his brother is in a cage of poverty.
