1. He stopped at the stranger's door and called out,
"For your sake, where has my heart found rest?"

2. And if you pass by the dwellings in Al-Hamma,
Unburden there my anguish and my vigil.

3. Oh for your sake, what news of my loved ones,
Of Al-Hamma, its valley and dwellings?

4. O Sa'd, the oryx has appeared, so has our joy.
So alight, for your sake, as my bliss starts!

5. Take as good tidings my love when the oryx appears,
And the signs of joy and bliss start.

6. My holiday has truly come the day I see her beauty,
Like the crescent moon, harbinger of feasts.
