1. When she saw us halting the camels
She got up, revealing to me her slender frame

2. A whiteness illuminated its darkness
A cheek from the gazelles, timid

3. Roaming the deep valleys
A companion of herds that have small lives

4. Like the Achaeans or the Bardiyat
Or the clouds or the valleys

5. Or like the trunks of lotus trees, Hebrew
Describing in summer on couches

6. Of kidney in sunken meadows
They placed Bedouin patterns

7. Then sat by the pond of youth
A rider who sends her regards

8. The loveliest tax collector from the lands
Traveling while the family sleeps

9. Spending the night between hot sands
Responding at night with a musical tone

10. Whispering to lofty ridges
Plunging onto high dunes

11. Slippers of soft tread, twilight
As if whimpering from deep pits
