1. ألَا لِلَّهِ لَيْلَتُنا بِحُزْوَى

    يَخُوضُ فُروعَها شَمْطُ الصَّباحِ

    Ah, what a night was ours at Ḥuzwā!

    Dawn's grayness wades through its branches,

  2. لَدى غَنّاءَ أَزْهَرَ جانِباهَا

    يُرَنِّحُنا بِها نَزَقُ المِراحِ

    Beside a lush garden whose two sides have blossomed,

    Where the wildness of mirth sets us swaying.

  3. فَلا زالَتْ قَرارَةَ كلِّ مُزْنٍ

    أَغَرَّ يَشُلُّهُ زَجَلُ الرِّياحِ

    So may it ever be a basin for every raincloud,

    Bright white, driven onward by the winds' roar.
