نَعَبَcroaked الغُرابُthe raven فقُلْتُso I said أَكذَبُmost deceitful طائرٍbird
نَعَبَ الغُرابُ فقُلْتُ أَكذَبُ طائرٍ
إنْif لَمْnot يُصَدّقهُproves it truthful رُغاءُbellowing بَعيرِof a camel
إنْ لَمْ يُصَدّقهُ رُغاءُ بَعيرِ
The raven croaked, and I said, “The most deceitful bird—
unless a camel’s bellow proves it truthful.”
رِدُّanswering cry الجمالِof the camels هُوَit is المُحَقِّقُthe confirmer لِلنَّوىof parting
رِدُّ الجمالِ هُوَ المُحَقِّقُ لِلنَّوى
بَلrather شرُّthe evil أحْلاسٍof saddlecloths لَهُنَّbelonging to them وكُورِand a camel-saddle
بَل شرُّ أحْلاسٍ لَهُنَّ وكُورِ
The camels’ answering cry is what confirms parting—
rather, the ill omen of their saddlecloths and saddle.
