فَلَا ٱقۡتَحَمَ ٱلۡعَقَبَةَ
But he has not broken through the difficult pass.
তবে সে তো বন্ধুর গিরিপথে প্রবেশ করেনি।
لیکن وہ گھاٹی کو عبور نہ کرسکا۔
परंतु उसने दुर्लभ घाटी में प्रवेश ही नहीं किया।
Tetapi dia tiada menempuh jalan yang mendaki lagi sukar.
Fakat o, sarp yokuşu aşamadı.
پس به گردنه (سخت) قدم نگذاشت (و نیامد).
Or, il ne s'engage pas dans la voie difficile!
