1. وَهَل أَسوى بَراقِشُ حينَ أَسوى

    بِبَلقَعَةٍ وَمُنبَسِطٍ أَنيقِ

    Does Baraqish grieve when she grieves

    With a skullcap and outspread carpet, elegant,

  2. وَحَلّوا مِن مَعينٍ يَومَ حَلّوا

    لِعِزِّهِمُ لَدى الفَجِّ العَميقِ

    And they camped one day they camped

    For their glory, by the deep ravine
