1. سلام ما قبيلي بيذرا شعير

    ويملى لك المتبان

    Greetings, my tribe is not planting barley

    And he dictates analysts to you

  2. وما فوق مرجو يزبط جعير

    وما غرد الدشمان

    And above the pasture is set on fire

    And the enemies did not sing

  3. وما سرحوا للبتول الفطير

    إلى سابلة سعوان

    And they did not roam to the chaste virgin

    To Sabla Saawan

  4. وما قاع حوشان الافيح مطير

    وما خربت عمران

    And the valley of houses did not rain heavily

    And civilization did not get ruined

  5. إلى من قوامه إذا انوى يسير

    يقطى له المران

    To those whose stance, when intending to walk

    The meadows are cut for him

  6. تقل عاد معه في مكانه خبير

    وهو يسرح الحرقان

    You say his companion returned to his place, an expert

    And he releases the burning

  7. أو الا تقل قد ذفل في السرير

    معه كرس في الديوان

    Or do you not say he withered on the bed

    With him a bowl in the diwan

  8. وبشر على هو خرج لك بعاع

    أو الا معك معلوف

    And rejoice, he went out to you with a cane

    Or else do you have supplies

  9. طلى ذو سرى ثربته كالقراع

    وصوفه قدوه منتوف

    The one with the hidden pain, his spun wool like a pumpkin

    And his wool, a tailored garment
