يَا صَاحِ هَلْ أَنْتَ بالتَّعْرِيجِ تَنْفَعُنَا
عَلَى مَنَازِلَ بالبَرْقَاءِ مُنْعَرَجُ
Oh companion, do you benefit us with wandering
Around dwellings in Al-Barqa'a, winding,
عَلَى مَنازِلَ بالطَّاوُوسِ قَدْ دَرَسَتْ
تُسْدِي الجَنُوبُ عليها ثُمَّ تَتْتَسِجُ
Around dwellings in Al-Taawous, which have decayed -
The sides pour rain on them, then weep.
