إلا ثلاثاً في المقا

مة ما يحولهن ناقلْ

مة ما يحولهن ناقلْ

Except for three in the encamp-

Except three in the cattle yard,

ment, which no mover shifts;

that no carrier can change them -

سفع الخدود كأنما

سفع الخدود كأنما

نثرت عليهن المكاحلْ

blackened of cheek, as though

Slapping the cheeks as though

kohl-pots had been scattered over them.

Saffron was scattered upon them.
