1. Make certain, O loud-voiced herald of death:

    Is it true that Yazid has perished?

  2. Did you not marvel at him—that the fates

    struck him down, though they were his soldiers?

  3. They struck him down, though they used to turn away from him

    whenever war’s fuel burst into flame.

  4. It has indeed consoled Rabi‘a that a day

    like yours will not return upon her (final verb uncertain).

Sol 6.1
