وَأَنَّا
كُنَّا
نَقْعُدُ
مِنْهَا
مَقَاعِدَ
لِلسَّمْعِ
فَمَن
يَسْتَمِعِ
الْآنَ
يَجِدْ
لَهُ
شِهَابًا
رَّصَدًا
wa-ʾannā kunnā naqʿudu minhā maqāʿida li-s-samʿi fa-man yastamiʿi l-ʾāna yajid lahū shihāban raṣadan
We used to sit near by and try to listen to the heavens, but shooting flames now await those who try to do that.
