وكوكب من أفقه

وكوكب من أفقه

في إثر عفريت وثب

في إثر عفريت وثب

And a star, from its horizon,

And a star, from its horizon,

leapt in pursuit of a demon,

leapt in pursuit of a demon,

كأنه محاربٌ

كأنه محاربٌ

يجرّ رمحاً من ذهب

يجرّ رمحاً من ذهب

as though it were a warrior,

as though it were a warrior

dragging spears of gold.

dragging a spear of gold.
