أَمَّنوا الرِّيح لي سَلاماً زَكِيَّا

ثمَّ جاءَتْ للحيِّ تسأَلُ عنِّي

They sent the gracious wind to bid me peace,

Then to the living did she turn and ask of me.

هاتِ لي هذه الأَمانَةَ منهُمْ

وخُذي هذه الأَمانَةَ مِنِّي

"Give me this trust," she said, "to carry unto them,

And take thou back this trust to keep with thee."
