1. How can one settled in Umm Dafr describe it
When from every perspective he chooses it

2. From lands the newcomer had come
Yet did not heed those leaving it

3. And the diversity of affairs whereupon
Personal traits contain those differing in them

4. And the intimacy of friends snatches pleasures
If surrendered to those snatching them

5. An Arab strives for the neighboring world
Thus is he called foolish for what he gained

6. And you see the bumpkin chooses a bride
From beyond the village in which he resides
