1. أجارَتَنا إنَّ الخُطُوبَ تَنوبُ

    وإني مُقِيمٌ ما أقامَ عَسِيبُ

    O our neighbor, indeed misfortunes recur.

    And I shall remain as long as Asib stands.

  2. أجارَتَنا إنّا غَرِيبَانِ هَهُنَا

    وكُلُّ غَرِيبٍ للغَريبِ نَسيبُ

    O our neighbor, indeed we are two strangers here.

    And every stranger is kin to a stranger.

  3. فإن تَصِلِينَا فَالقَرَابَةُ بَيْنَنَا

    وإنْ تَصْرِمِينَا فالغَريبُ غريبُ

    So if you keep ties with us, kinship lies between us.

    And if you sever ties with us, a stranger remains a stranger.

  4. أجارَتَنا مافاتَ لَيْسَ يَؤوبُ

    ومَا هُوَ آتٍ في الزَّمانِ قَرِيبُ

    O our neighbor, what has passed does not return.

    And what is yet to come in time is near.

  5. ولَيْسَ غريباً مَن تَنائتْ ديارُهُ

    ولكنَّ مَنْ وارى التُّرابُ غَريبُ

    Nor is one whose dwellings lie far away a stranger.

    But the one whom the earth has covered is a stranger.
