1. بسبتَةَ لي سَكنٌ في الثّرى

    وخِلٌ كريمٌ إليها أتى

    In Ceuta, a loved one of mine lies beneath the earth,

    and a noble friend has come there.

  2. فلو استطيعُ رَكبِت الهَوا

    فزرتُ بها الحَيّ والميتَا

    If I could, I would ride the air,

    then visit there the living and the dead.
