1. يا دارُ أَقوَت بِجانِبِ اللَبَبِ

    بَينَ تِلاعِ العَقيقِ فَالكُثُبِ

    O dwelling, left deserted beside al-Labab,

    Between the ravines of al-‘Aqiq and the dunes,

  2. حَيثُ اِستَقَرَّت نَواهُمُ فَسُقوا

    صَوبَ غَمامٍ مُجَلجِلٍ لَجِبِ

    Where their journey ended—may they receive

    A downpour from a rumbling, roaring cloud.

  3. لَم تَتَلَفَّع بِفَضلِ مِئزَرَها

    دَعدٌ وَلَم تُغذَ دَعدُ بِالعُلَبِ

    She never wrapped herself in her waistcloth’s spare length—

    Da‘d—nor was Da‘d fed from wooden bowls.
