أَيُّها المُنكِحُ الثُرَيّا سُهَيلاً

عَمرَكَ اللَهَ كَيفَ يَلتَقِيانِ

O matcher of Siha with Suhail,

May your life be long - how can they meet?

هِيَ شامِيَّةٌ إِذا ما اِستَقَلَّت

وَسُهيلٌ إِذا اِستَقَلَّ يَمانِ

She is a Syrian lady when at rest,

And Suhail is a Yeminite, when he sets in the west.
