1. I wish the desert would encounter
No tribes to count, no dunes, and no oasis,
١. لَيتَ البَسيطَةَ لا تَلقى بِظاهِرِها
شَعباً يُعَدُّ وَلا بَطناً وَلا فَخِذا
2. God gave you what gift He endowed you with,
Had what you got been granted, it wouldn’t be seized.
٢. أَعارَكَ اللَهُ ما أَعطاكَ مَوهِبَةً
لَو كانَ ما نِلتَ مَوهوباً لِما أُخِذا
