1. Ah, if only I knew: shall I spend a night

    on the ridge of al-Ṣafā, with a south wind wafting over me?

  2. And shall I reach the tribe, making for their dwellings

    at Dhū Jawfar? What a wondrous thing that would be to me—

  3. on a morning of spring rain, or an evening of summer rain,

    when, through its channels under darkness’s wing, the waters softly creep.
