1. The dwelling of Ibn Rizq's son dragged its skirts therein,
From al-Muzni, driving camels well, watering them.

2. I mentioned it one evening with no blame for its pact,
Though we were not delighted by its splendor when met.

3. And nothing clung to me from you when we parted,
Except some musk perfume from your soft hand.

4. I saw myself in dreams as if I was handing out
Gold dinars from the wealth of worldly life.

5. But when that lineage and its beauty wrapped
Around an hour of our company, the dream came true.
