1. نُشِرَ الوردُ في الغدير وقد در

    رَجَهُ بالهبوب نشْرُ الرياح

    Roses were strewn upon the pool, and already

    the winds’ wafting breath had ruffled it as they blew,

  2. مثل درعِ الكميِّ مزَّقها الطعنُ

    فسالتْ بهِ دماءُ الجراح

    like a warrior’s coat of mail torn by spear-thrusts,

    so that blood from wounds flowed over him.
