وما نحن إلا رفقة قد ترحلت

وما نحن إلا رفقة قد ترحلت

لقصد وأخرى قد أنيخت ركابها

لقصد وأخرى قد أنيخت ركابها

And we are but a company that has set out

We are but a caravan that has moved on,

Toward a destination, and another whose riding camels have been made to kneel.

For a purpose, and another that has rested its riding-beasts.
