وَأَشعَثَand a disheveled man رِخوِslack المَنكِبَينِthe two shoulders بَعَثتُهُI roused him
وَأَشعَثَ رِخوِ المَنكِبَينِ بَعَثتُهُ
وَلِلنَومِand for sleep مِنهُof him فيin العِظامِthe bones دَبيبُa creeping movement
وَلِلنَومِ مِنهُ في العِظامِ دَبيبُ
And a disheveled, slack-shouldered man I sent forth,
And I roused a disheveled, slack-shouldered man,
while night crept through his bones.
while sleep crept through his bones.
