1. A radiant light gleams
For a passionate one who does not sleep

2. And burning with love that does not cease
Ribs are folded over it

3. And there have come from a year
Flashes that deceive

4. So tears intervened
Between my eyes and them

5. And how can an eye be devoid
Of tears when the heart aches

6. Yearning for Najd though
The way to it is blocked

7. And I said when the father of
Mighwar weakened, yet he is most graceful

8. And he was not
Of those who panic from misfortunes

9. If its firewood is extinguished
Al-Musharifi will rekindle it

10. The valley of anger is not, I reckon
Where it will retreat

11. And the scout missed it
At An-Nuqayb is its pasture

12. In it there is no water to drink
Nor a purpose to graze

13. And they are under Anas,
As if they are more friendly

14. Have patience, for yearning for you
Has deprived me of sleep

15. How good are Najd, Rayyan
And the sanctuary and Al-Ajra’

16. And its shady side surrounds
A meadow irrigated around it

17. Rayyan that was chosen for it
In Thi Al-Araak a square

18. Clasping the two armlets but
The bracelet is filled

19. I long for it and my heart
Is wholeheartedly enamored

20. And between us there is a separation
At the hands of the survivors it was cut

21. So my hearing does not delight
In melody, if I moan it is blocked

22. And the camels, missing their
Familiarity, tug away
