1. هَل دَرى القَبرُ المُضيءُ سَناهُ

    أَيَّ غِطريفٍ مِنَ القَومِ آوى

    Did the grave, whose radiance shines, know

    What noble lord among the people it sheltered?

  2. كانَ يَرتاعُ أَبو الشبلِ مِنهُ

    كُلَّما صالَ فَكَيفَ اِبنُ آوى

    The lion would take fright at him

    Whenever he charged—how much more the jackal?
