1. نَبتانِ هذا أَصلُهُ سامِقٌ

    قاسٍ وَذا مِن خائِرٍ قاصِرِ

    Two plants: this one's stock is lofty,

    And hard; that one comes from a feeble, stunted stock.

  2. أَيُّهُما صَحَّفتَ مَعكوسَهُ

    دَلَّ بِلا شَكٍّ عَلى الآخَرِ

    Whichever one's reversed form you change the dots of,

    It points, without doubt, to the other.
