خَلُّوا سَبِيلَ الْحَوْضِ

وَفَحِّصُوا عَنْ حَوْضِ

Clear the path to the pond

Clear the way to the basin,

And search for a pond

And seek out a watering pool,

مِثْلَ الُّلجَيْنِ الْمَحْضِ

يَنْسَابُ وَسْطَ رَوْضِِ

Like clear flowing streams

Like the purest of silver,

In the midst of an orchard with fruits and citrus

Flowing amidst a meadow,

ذِي خَلَّةٍ وَحَمْضِ

مِنَ الْجَمِيمِ الْغَضِّ

From a bountiful spring not meager

Rich with sweet herbs and saltbushes,

On flat land

Of tender, luxuriant vegetation,

أَوْ بَارِضٍ لاَ بَرْضِ

فِي مُسْتَوٍ مِنْ أَرْضِ

Refreshing all around

Or early sprouts that are never sparse,

In its length and breadth

Upon a level stretch of land,

يَنْعَشُ كُلُّ عِرْضِ

فِي طُولِهَا وَالْعَرْضِ

Reviving every expanse,

Across its length and breadth.
