وعدت أن تزور ليلاً فألوت

وأتت في النهار تسحب ذيلا

You promised you’d visit me at night, so I waited expectantly,

Yet you came during the day, dragging your tail behind you.

قلت هلا صدقت في الوعد قالت

هل توهمت أن ترى الشمس ليلا

I said, "Why didn't you keep your promise?" You replied,

"Did you really think you'd see the sun at night?"
