وذي ازورار ابت عيناهُ مُرتحلا

قال الحياءُ أنا أولى بمرتحل

With eyes of azure this wanderer came

Modesty said: "I'm the one who should leave in shame"

فيم الإقامةُ بالزّوراء لا سكني

بها ولا ناقتي فيها ولا جملي

Why stay in the land of falsehood, not meant as my home?

No shelter have I there, nor camel, nor supplies to roam
