1. Homs is no small place, though enmity be prolonged
Homs is a town whose beauty all other towns has outshone

2. The letters spelling Homs tell truly of its grace
For from the Quran's chapter H.M. it takes its case

3. A sage of healing art, and wisdom too
If he returned, he'd bring my wandering heart back home

4. So he's the doctor to my soul, and though
You wished, you could not change that H to KH.
