Ibn Za‘qan came to resemble a billy goat after
the cocks of those who knew him had proclaimed him dead.
يقولُsays لِسانُthe tongue الحالِof the condition منهof him لِغَيرِهمto others besides them
يقولُ لِسانُ الحالِ منه لِغَيرِهم
هَلُمُّواcome, all of you فإِنيfor indeed I كنتُI was مِنfrom قبلُbefore كالظَّبيlike a gazelle
هَلُمُّوا فإِني كنتُ مِن قبلُ كالظَّبي
The tongue of his condition says to others besides them:
“Come, for I was once like a gazelle.”
Sol 6.1
