أَحْيَا الْأَرْضَ شَبَابُ الزَّمَانِ
The youth of time brought the land to life.
The subject shabāb al-zamān (شباب الزمان) uses “youth” figuratively of time; time does not literally become a young human. The predicate aḥyā (أحيا) refers figuratively to the emergence of vegetation and vitality, not literally reviving a dead person.
Both sides therefore involve lexical figurative usage, while the fresh growth is also attributed to an associated season or quality of time. Rational figurative predication remains present.
