كَأَنَّ صَموتاً صافَتَ النَحلُ حَولَها

كَأَنَّ صَموتاً صافَتَ النَحلُ حَولَها

تَناوَلَها مِن رَأسِ رَهوَةَ شائِرُ

تَناوَلَها مِن رَأسِ رَهوَةَ شائِرُ

As though a honeycomb, with bees hovering around it,

As though bees had clarified stillness around her,

had been gathered from the summit of Rahwah by a honey-gatherer.

A wanderer took her from the head of a meadow.
