1. أَنَعشٌ في السَماءِ وَذاكَ أَمرٌ

    يَدُلُّ عَلى هَلاكِ بَناتِ نَعشِ

    Is there a bier in the sky? And that is something

    that points to the death of the Daughters of Naʿsh.

  2. أَلَم يَتَبَيَّنوا الخَطبَ المُوارى

    بِجَهلٍ أَم قَضاءُ اللَهِ يُعشي

    Have they failed to discern the hidden calamity

    through ignorance, or does God's decree dim their sight?
