مُنعَ الشتاءُ من الوصو
لِ مع الرسولِ الى دِياري
Winter was held back from arriving
To keep company with the Messenger in my lands
فأعادَني وعلى اخْتِيا
ري جاءَ من غيرِ اخْتِياري
So he brought me back, though not by my choice
Upon a camel that came without my asking
ولرُبّما وقعَ الحما
رُ وكان منْ غرَضِ المَكاري
And sometimes the camel fell
Though that was not its rider's intent
