1. فتلك هامتُه في الجوِّ ناطقةٌ

    تُحدِّثُ الناس من آياتها عِبَرَا

    So that is his head, speaking in the air,

    telling people lessons drawn from its signs.

  2. مكتوبة الوجه بالهنديّ يقرؤه

    من ليس يقرأ مكتوبا ولا سطرا

    Its face, inscribed by the Indian sword, is read

    by one who reads neither written text nor a line.
