وَمُعتَرَكٍ لِلوَصلِ يُجلى عَجاجُهُ
بِبَطحاءَ قَومٍ عَن قَتيلٍ وَقاتِلِ
A battlefield for reunion made clear by the croaking of its frogs
In the lowlands of a people mourning their dead and their killer
وَأَكثَرُ ما يُلقى بِهِ غِبَّ نَومِهِ
سِقاطُ اللَآلي أَو فُصومُ الخَلاخِلِ
And most disturbing its sleep are the falling stars
Or the clinking of anklets
