جاءَني مِن لَدَيه مَروانُ إذ قَف
فيتُ عَنهُ بِخير ما أَحذاني
Marwān came to me from him when I
had departed from him with the best of what he had bestowed on me,
بِإِفَالٍ عشرينَ قَحَّمَهَا الصَّع
ب بِحُسنِ الإِخاء والخلاَّنِ
with twenty young camels that al-Ṣaʿb had driven in,
through the kindness of brotherhood and friends:
لا صَفَايَا دُهم فأسَمَها الرِّس
لُ ولا جِلَّة قَطيعٍ هِجَان
not choice black milch-camels marked by
milk, nor full-grown camels from a white, well-bred herd.
Sol 6.1
