دَلَنطى يَزِلُّ القِطرُ عَن صَهَواتِهِ

دَلَنطى يَزِلُّ القِطرُ عَن صَهَواتِهِ

هُوَ اللَيلُ في الجُمّازَةِ المتوَرِّدُ

هُوَ اللَيلُ في الجُمّازَةِ المتوَرِّدُ

Massive—the rain slips from his back.

Hulking—rain slips off the ridges of his back;

He is night itself in a bounding gallop, making for water.

He is the night drawing near, clad in a woolen tunic.
