1. الدَهرُ إِن يَنصُركَ يَنصُر بَعدها

    ذا إِحنَةٍ فَيَحورُ كُلَّ مَحارِ

    If Time helps you, afterward it will help

    One who bears a grudge; so it turns every way.

  2. وَهَواجِرُ الأَيّامِ يَسلُبُ حَرُّها

    ما أَودَعَتهُ ذَواهِبُ الأَسحارِ

    And the heat of the days’ scorching noons strips away

    What the passing pre-dawn hours have deposited.
