1. How many streams between your banks
Melted onto you, oh valley of honey
١. كَم بَينَ شَطَّيكَ مِن رِيٍّ لِجانِحَةٍ
ذابَت عَلَيكَ صَدىً يا وادِيَ العَسَلِ
2. What called them to a valley other than you, athirst
Can you not see in it the slackening of laziness
٢. وَما دَعاها إِلى وادٍ سِواكَ ظَما
أَلا تَبَيَّنُ فيها فَترَةَ الكَسَلِ
