1. I alighted in the spacious valley surrounded,
Inhabited by foes and those in distress,
١. نزلت بالرحبة التي وخمت
وجاورتها العدى وذي محنه
2. It destroys whoever settles on its outskirts,
And drinks from its searing waters,
٢. تدمر من حل في جوانبها
وشربه من مياهها السخنه
3. And if the plague misses its settlements,
It will not miss the stab of its foes.
٣. وإن يفته طاعون بقعتها
فلم يفته من العدا طعنه
