Sol 6.1

  1. كأنّ نُؤادي في يدِي خَفَقانهِ

    فريسةُ ليثٍ قد تلاشَت من النّهبِ

    As though my heart, in the hands of its throbbing,

    Were a lion’s prey, reduced to nothing by ravaging.

  2. كأنّ سراباً في ضلوعي وجاحماً

    فهذا حكى شوقي وهذا حكى قلبي

    As though a mirage and a blazing fire were within my ribs:

    The one mirrored my longing, and the other mirrored my heart.
