1. إِنَّ الجَديدَينِ ما رَثّا وَلا خَلُقا

    وَلَم يَدوما عَلى نُعمى وَلا بوسِ

    Indeed, the ever-new pair—night and day—have neither grown threadbare nor worn out;

    Nor have they remained constant in bliss or misery.

  2. قَد أَنذَرَ المُنذِرينِ الحَتفُ وَاِفتَرَسا ال

    فُرسانَ وَاِقتَبَسا نيرانَ قابوسِ

    Death has warned the two Mundhirs; the pair have devoured the

    Horsemen and drawn fire from Qabus's flames.
