1. You bid farewell to the neighbors of Jayrun
O companion, distressed at the anxiety in my heart

2. And seclude its university from me, for how much
Its wings have gathered friends since old times

3. Stand at the Khátún Mosque, for in it
My heart has become submissive and humble

4. And you, O Birq the alive one of Nayrabayn in it
And tend its wound healing it like silk

5. And if you come to the fever and here, greet it
They lived in Jurmana and Jisrín

6. The sick one is healed by seeing it and it makes him happy
Scents that emanated from the heart of two hearts

7. And I pass by Beirut where the water descends
Melting between gardens for the small breezes

8. Where the houses on the bending branches have become
Strutting in the flexing of the twigs and tenderness

9. I overlook the highest overlook if time allowed
Those gazelles in the meadows of the maidan

10. On a Saturday you see the shorts carrying
On their shoulders forms like snakes

11. And its arrow alive, so it is to say the least
The arrow from it is arrows of passion that make me lean

12. And does the tear from you increase as
The water of Thawr stirs the water of Sihun

13. And rain your tears at al-Maytur and cry over
An era of joy we ended with chariots

14. And ask the doves of that valley freshly
Moaning with the beaks of the gardens

15. Where the anemones lay their cheeks hiding
And the roses bloom with scattering and nesrin

16. And the fresh narcissi, their facets have become
Telling of the languor of the sleepy eyes

17. And for the violets breaths scented
Coming from the scent of India and China

18. Homes that I have not found compensation for their fragrance
No, even if the reward is countless

19. And I do not sell the aroma of that breeze in it
For the kingdom of Egypt or Qarun's money

20. How good is the time in spring in it for us
And its most beautiful days are in Tishrin

21. It is pleasing to me in summer and the heat is blazing
And I do not dislike it in the time of scorches

22. Maqlis Darí is not my house or the seven-faced lion in it
The pilgrimage is enjoyable and the crown does not interest me

23. And I am not sorry if I turn away from the balance and the Nile is turbid like Jayhun
And I do not see the sight of the pyramids satisfying me

24. Over a room in Ruba Jdaya and Zabadin
No, and its two palaces do not distract me

25. From its mosque's courtyard a day and busy me
And al-Qarafa does not suffice me visiting it

26. Over Qasyun, nor do the observatories occupy me
And I do not see my stroll in al-Lauq suitable

27. After Sutra, Muqurra and the maidans
And I have not compensated for Bab al-Barid with what

28. I see in the night from the darkness of the lamps
This is my talk, and time did not get long or

29. The days pass, and I have someone who consoles me
I will travel away from it while still young

30. To Damascus, and the least livelihood suffices me
