Sol 6.1

  1. بطشت يا فضل في دمشق

    وفي بنيها أشد بطش

    You struck violently, O Fadl, in Damascus,

    and against its sons with the fiercest violence.

  2. وكم بنات بها بدوراً

    كانت وصارت بنات نعش

    And how many maidens there, once full moons,

    have become Daughters of the Bier.
