1. We left the land we loved most
And boarded modern carriages

2. Heading to Lebanon with moons
That appeared from Aleppian horizons

3. Our luck shortened the day so it told
Its times some fleeting hour

4. So it's as if we're walking in a palace of glory
That acquired every merit from the refinement of china

5. A trip that renewed the time of cordiality
And evenings of conversation after sunset

6. I said, if not for the separation from the beloved of my heart
O what a trip this would have been
