My determination shortened, and patience and composure too,

2. Imagination brings a house near when I head towards it,
But something comes between to make it recede.

3. No servant can grasp his needs with a hand,
Unless the hand of the Almighty helps him in his matter,

4. Needs have times in which they are fulfilled,
Like people's souls lie in wait for their deadlines.

5. Today, my she-camel, New Year passed by us
In July, no cold or cold wind,

6. Be serious and do not complain of fatigue from our journey,
For the soul and body will soon rest from us.

7. That is the west, fires lit up in it,
And that is the east, people depend on it,

8. From Haider, heros have risen for us,
Blessed be such a father, blessed be such a son!

9. They are the two princes of a people whose leadership
Goes back to the era of ‘Aad and even before them,

10. Each steadfast for God, holding on to Him,
Supporting the truth, backed up in it.

11. They said we saw you heading towards the abode of Bani,
Raslan, they spoke justly about what they witnessed,

12. Everyone loves their own dignity in life,
It being precious, neither alive nor abode.

13. The young one sees in himself only youth,
In the presence of elders when he comes to visit,

14. The guest is given a station with them, so he sees
What he did not find before in himself.

15. These are the noble manners of the generous ones,
Ancient from the glory days of Azd, nothing new,

16. Inheriting them, so it was in their clans,
The richest inheritance, neither money nor number.

17. I have composed most of my poetry in praising them,
Thanks to God, no deviance nor enmity,

18. People believe every praiser of them,
And no one believes one who slanders them.
