1. حَشلافُ قد ماتَ ابنه مُردِّداً

    لسانَ حالِه لفَرطِ غَمِّه

    Hashlaf's son has died, echoing

    the voice of his plight, in his overwhelming grief:

  2. أىُّ حياةٍ بقيَت لِمَن رَأى

    أباهُ يُوتَى في فراشِ أُمِّه

    What life remained for one who saw

    his father being sodomized in his mother's bed?
