1. Yusuf the poet is a young bird
They found him in Abella
١. يوسُفَ الشاعِرَ فَرخٌ
وَجَدوهُ بالأَبِلَّةِ
2. My throat received
Hidden in the interior of a skin
٢. حَلقي قَد تَلَقّى
كامِناً في جَوفِ جُلَّةِ
3. They sewed it fearing the dog
Upon it with its awl
٣. خَيَّطوها خِشيَةَ الكَلبِ
عَلَيهِ بِمَسلِهِ
