نُبِّئتُ أَنَّ بُرَيداً خَفَّ حاضِرُهُ

مِنهُ وَزايَلَهُ المَرعِيُّ وَالهَمَلُ

I was told that a camel has lessened his presence

Among us, and the herdsman as well as the camel herd have parted from him

وَقَد رَأَيتُ بِها الأَصرامَ يَجمَعُهُم

سَهلُ الأَباطِحِ لا ضيقٌ وَلا جَرَلُ

And I have seen the hillsides gather them together

On the easy open plains, not narrow or rugged
