1. هُوَذا الغابُ وَالمَجاري الجَميلَه

    وَالصُخورُ الأَطوادُ وَالأَدواحُ

    Behold the forest and the lovely streams,

    And the mountain-like rocks and the great trees.

  2. هوذا الكوخُ في ظِلالِ الخَميلَه

    يَتَلاقى فيهِ الشَذا وَالرِياحُ

    Behold the hut in the shade of the thicket;

    Within it, fragrance and the winds meet.

  3. هوذا المرجُ وَالمَواشي كَما كا

    نَت وَهذا غُدُوُّها وَالرَواحُ

    Behold the meadow and the livestock, as they

    were; and here are their morning departure and evening return.

  4. هوذا الدَلبُ وَالغصونُ الخِفافُ

    حابِكاتٌ خِيامَها لِلضُّيوف

    Behold the plane trees and the light branches,

    Weaving their tents for guests.

  5. هوذا الظلُّ ظِلُّها المِضيافُ

    كَرداءٍ مُلقى بِشَكلٍ لَطيفِ

    Behold the shade, their hospitable shade,

    Like a cloak gracefully laid out.

  6. بَينَ طَيّاتِهِ وَعن جانِبَيهِ

    يَهرُبُ الماءُ بِاِرتِعاشٍ خَفيفِ

    Between its folds and on either side of it,

    The water slips away with a slight tremor.

  7. هوذا النَحلُ خارِجاً من قَفيرِه

    يَرتَدي الشَمسَ حُلَّةً مِن بَريقِ

    Behold the bees emerging from their hive;

    They wear the sun as a robe of radiance

  8. سَكب الغابُ في أَغاني طُيورِه

    That the forest poured into the songs of its birds.
