أهلاً بخُطَّافٍ أَتانا زَائِراً

غَرِداً يُذَكِّرُ بالزَّمانِ البَاسِمِ

Welcome to a hunter who came visiting

Chirping reminding us of the smiling spring

لَبِسَت سَرَابيلَ الصبَّاحِ بُطُونُهُ

وَظُهورُهُ ثَوبَ الظَّلامِ القَاتِم

Wearing the pants of the dawn on his belly

And on his back the dress of the gloomy darkness
