1. جُزْ عَلى ذي سَلَمٍ وَاِقْرِ السّلاما

    تُلفِ عُرْباً نَصَبوا فيها الخِياما

    Pass by Dhu Salam and convey greetings;

    You will find Arabs who have pitched their tents there.

  2. وَاِنتَشقْ عَرفَ غوالٍ وشذَى

    مِن نَسيمٍ صافَحت فيها الخُزامى

    And inhale the scent of fine perfumes and sweet fragrance

    From a breeze with which the lavender there has shaken hands.

  3. وَاِمشِ في الرَّكبِ الحجازيِّ الَّذي

    جَدَّ في السَّيرِ وَقَد عادَى المَناما

    And walk with the Hijazi caravan that

    Has pressed on in its journey and made an enemy of sleep.

  4. ثمَّ يَمِّمْ طيبةً وَاِنزِل بِها

    لَكَ تُبدي مِن ثَناياها اِبتِساما

    Then make for Taybah and alight there;

    She reveals to you a smile from between her teeth.

  5. وَتَواضَع بِوَقارٍ مُبدِياً

    حينَ تَلقاها اِحتِراماً وَاِحتِشاما

    And humble yourself with dignity, showing

    Respect and modest reserve when you meet her.

  6. ثمَّ زُرْ خَيرَ رَسولٍ حلَّها

    وَبِهِ قَد شُرِّفت حيثُ أَقاما

    Then visit the best of messengers, who settled there;

    And through him she was honored as the place where he dwelt.

  7. ثمَّ بَلِّغه مِنَ الصبِّ الَّذي

    ذابَ بِالشَّوقِ صَلاةً وَسَلاما

    Then convey to him, from the lovesick lover who

    Has melted with longing, blessings and peace.
