1. خَلِيلَىَّ رُوحا بالهَجِينِ فَسَلِّمَا

    عَلَى الخَيمِ أَو مُرّا بِذِ العُشَرَاتِ

    My friends, send a spirit with soft words

    To greet the tents, or pass by the dwellings,

  2. وَقِيلا بِنا فِى ظِلِّهِنَّ وَرَمِّيا

    ذُرَاهُنَّ رَمىَ المُحرِمِ الجمَراتِ

    And say of us, in their shade, and cast

    Pebbles as the pilgrim casts pebbles at Mina.

  3. وَقُولا لِمَن لاقَيتُما يا هُدِيتُما

    أَحِثّا لنا فِى الطَّوفِ مِن بَكَرَاتِ

    And say to those you meet who have been guided right:

    "Urge us on in the rush of pilgrims at daybreak,

  4. قَلائِصُ فِيهِنَّ الَّتِى الّتِى كِبرُ هَمِّها

    أَنِينٌ وَتُذرِى الدَّمعَ بالزَّفَرَاتِ

    The tents wherein are those who so pine

    With groaning and pouring forth tears in sobs."
