لَو غَدا أَنفَكَ العَظيمُ غَدا وَه

لَو غَدا أَنفَكَ العَظيمُ غَدا وَه

وَ وَقودٌ لِلنارِ ذاتِ الوَقودِ

وَ وَقودٌ لِلنارِ ذاتِ الوَقودِ

If tomorrow your enormous nose went forth,

Were your sublime nose made of wax

as fuel for the fire abounding in fuel,

It would melt from the heat of your inner blaze

ثُمَّ قالوا هَلّا اِمتَلَأتَ لَقالَت

ثُمَّ قالوا هَلّا اِمتَلَأتَ لَقالَت

هُوَ حَسبي وَلَم تُرِد مِن مَزيدِ

هُوَ حَسبي وَلَم تُرِد مِن مَزيدِ

and they then asked, “Are you not full?” it would say,

And were you asked, “Why not fill yourself?”

“It is enough for me,” and would desire no more.

You would say, “I need no more than I already have.”
