1. ومعبّسٍ لِلكاس راح وَأَنَّهُ

    مُتبسم الحَرَكات وَالسَكَنات

    And a frowning man went to the cup, though he was

    smiling in movement and in stillness.

  2. أَقضي ظُلماً وَبِثَغرِهِ وَبِوَجهِهِ

    ماءن ماء حَياً وَماء حَيّات

    I perish unjustly, while in his mouth and on his face

    are two waters: rainwater and the water of serpents.
