يَشقى الفَتى بِخلافِ كُلِّ مُعانِدٍ
يُؤذيهِ حَتّى بِالقَذى في مائِهِ
The young man suffers in contending with every stubborn adversary,
The youth suffers unlike any stubborn opponent
who harms him even with a speck in his water.
Who harms him even with specks in his water
يَهوِي إِذا أَصغى الإِناءُ لِشُربِه
وَيَروغُ عَنهُ عِندَ صَبِّ إِنائِهِ
It drops when the vessel tilts for him to drink,
He lunges when the vessel is raised for his drink
and darts away from him when he pours out his vessel.
And recoils from it when his vessel is poured
Sol 6.1
