طورا ويحبر عظمه فيراش

At times, then mends his bone, and he is enriched.
Then shatters its bones leaving them scattered

ينحى وفي إقباله يتناش
Thus have we seen Time: when it turns away,
Thus we saw time in its withdrawals
It strikes him down; when it turns toward him, it reaches out to save him.
Veering away, approaching, then fleeing
