Sol 6.1

  1. Your love toward Asma is laid bare, while she has fenced herself off

    Through distance and withholding, in days already past.

  2. And your informant told the oil and the oleander,

    And a torrent flowed beneath you and did not dry up.

  3. And the ram is frenzied when the young he-goat bleats to him;

    He scurries with his fat tail in abasement, and concedes.

  4. A greedy eater, a furtive suckler, when his watering places grow dusty,

    And no neighbor of his sleeps when he gathers fruit.

  5. It has spread among the people, among the things said of those two,

    That the hide has weakened, and that the basin has been undermined.
