The breeze of Damascus—may rain greet her—now
The breeze of Damascus has become its life,
walks gently in the shade of her sanctuary,
Walking lightly in the shade of its protection.

وكأنه في مائها وهضابها
ماnot داسtrod upon إلاexcept أعيناeyes وجباهاand foreheads
ما داس إلا أعينا وجباها
and it is as though, amid her waters and hills,
As if in its waters and plateaus,
it has trodden only on eyes and foreheads.
It trod only our eyes and brows.
