للِشَّرَفِ العَودُ فأَكنافُهُ
ما بَينَ جُمرانَ ويَنصُوبِ
The return to the high ground and its environs,
between Jumran and Yansub,
خَيرٌ لَهَا إن خَشيَت حَجرةً
مِن رَبِّهَا زَيدِ بنِ أَيُّوبِ
is better for her if she fears confinement
from her master, Zayd ibn Ayyub.
مُتَّكِئاً تُقرَعُ أَبوابُهُ
يَسعَى عَلَيهِ العَبدُ بِالكُوب
Reclining, he hears his doors being knocked;
a servant hurries to him with a cup.
لاَ يستَفِيقُ الدَّهر مِن شُربِها
ما حَنَّتِ النِّيبُ إلى النِّيبِ
He never sobers from drinking it, all his days,
as long as aged she-camels yearn for aged she-camels.
