عَجِبتُ لِأَبيضِ الخُصيينِ عَبدٍ
كَأَنَّas though عجانَهُhis perineum الشِّعريSirius العَبورُthe Crossing One
كَأَنَّ عجانَهُ الشِّعري العَبورُ
I marveled at a slave with white testicles,
I marvel at the white-robed captive, Abd,
As though his perineum were Sirius, the Crossing Star.
As if his heavy chains were rays of light
