1. قالَت عُمَيرَةُ ما يُلهيكَ عَن غَنَمي

    وَقَد حَلَلتُ مَعَ المِعزِيَةِ الحادي

    ʿUmayrah said, “What distracts you from my flock,

    when I have settled with the goats at al-Ḥādī?”

  2. يَكفيكَ مَكفاتَها إِن حَجرَةٌ أَزَمَت

    حُمزٌ تَحَيَّزها جَمعي وَإِتلادي

    Their upkeep will be met for you, should a lean year bite,

    by hardy beasts gathered from my acquired and inherited stock:

  3. قَعرِيَةٌ أَكَلَت أَشحى وَمَدفَعَهُ

    أَكنافَ أَشحى وَلَم تُعقَل بِأَقيادِ

    A lowland herd that grazed Ashḥā and its outlet,

    the flanks of Ashḥā, never bound with fetters.
