A day in Fez, and a while in Meknes,
Once in Fez, once in Meknes days gone by
and sometimes in my paternal and maternal uncles’ lodges;
And at times in corners of paternal uncle and aunt
وبُرهَةًand for a while سَفَريmy journey صَفروSefrou وآونةًand at times
وبُرهَةً سَفَري صَفرو وآونةً
تازاTaza وطوراًand sometimes أرىI am seen أفليI comb through الفَلاthe wilderness الخاليempty
تازا وطوراً أرى أفلي الفَلا الخالي
and for a while my journey takes me to Sefrou, and at times
For a while my journey was fruitless and once
to Taza; sometimes I am seen combing the empty wilderness.
In Taza and from time to time I see barren empty plains
