1. I sought asylum in the best sanctuary, from your heights,
And I pitched my tent in your fertile land.

2. So I took off the heavy necklace of worries,
And I comforted my soul from the loads of passion.

3. I descended into fertility at the best dwelling,
And I arrived in security at the head of a restless camel.

4. And even if dangers and journeys tired me,
And the darkness of a mournful night overwhelmed me.

5. Yet I settled while the nights had their rounds,
Adorned in their dreaminess, the eyes of the stars.

6. It suffices as protection of status and chastity,
That I clung to the secure pledge of Maryam.

7. Of trustworthiness, religion and piety,
And the most noble character and straightest path.

8. Of majesty, bounty, and deterrence from vice,
And the most elevated house and the most generous pillar.

9. From a family who at the time of tribulation
Bite their moustaches with the darkest gall.

10. From the house of glory and spears where none
Is met except with veneration and magnification.

11. Welcoming visitors joyfully
Or hitting the head of the roaming spy.

12. A knight whose brilliance his helmet reveals
Shining during events that make men frown.

13. Advancing in the chest of every brave battalion,
Whose flanks his sword paints with blood.

14. At whom every cultured person smiles
And every pale-faced frowns.

15. If Hatim Tai is generous, he is generous over there,
Or if Rabia Ibn Mukaddam contends, he contends.

16. And if you seek refuge through him, you seek it in an impenetrable
Refuge of the fugitive and treasure of the destitute.

17. None of the living stumble at its thresholds
Except the stumblings of the lame or the blind.

18. A free woman approaches him, so wealthy
She disdains to belong to other clans.

19. Famous for her nobility and chastity,
As famous as a charming doe in Dahm.

20. The generous stars brought her to him generously,
She who never longs for the whiteness of dirhams.

21. The necklace sits high around her neck,
As a new moon sits high in the horizon.

22. All hands refrain like those of a respected lover,
From the hand the dew descends from its clouds.

23. It attracted to her the free praise of Āqilah,
More radiant than the frowning clouds.

24. A generosity at which mounts kneel down in travel
From a helper, the winds blow to.

25. The green grass sprouts fresh with it,
And the tail of the wind grows fragrant breaths.

26. It wandered the countries without glooming,
In one condition, facing towards the eternal.

27. And it unshackles the fetters of the captives of destitution,
And the eloquent tribesman with the incomprehensible accent.

28. The free were ruled by the noblest woman,
And the scant handed stretched to her his empty palm.

29. Al-Quraishi carried praise of her, and he only
Carried the narration from Muslim.
