ولم يدقعوا عندما نابهم
لوقع الحروب ولم يخجلوا
They were not reduced to destitution when adversity befell them
under the blows of war, nor did they lose heart.
ولم ينفكك منهم الفاعلو
ن والقائل المحسن المجملُ
Nor were men of action ever lacking among them—
—nor the beneficent, gracious speaker.
Sol 5.6
