1. قَد سَأَلَتني بِنتُ عَمرٍو عَنِ ال

    أَرضِ الَّتي تُنكِرُ أَعلامَها

    ʿAmr’s daughter has asked me about the

    land whose landmarks she does not recognize.

  2. لَمّا رَأَت ساتيدِما اِستَعبَرَت

    لِلّهِ دَرُّ اليَومَ مَن لامَها

    When she saw Satidima, she wept.

    God bless whoever would blame her today!

  3. تَذَكَّرَت أَرضاً بِها أَهلُها

    أَخوالَها فيها وَأَعمامَها

    She remembered a land where her family lives,

    her maternal uncles there, and her paternal uncles.
