1. لَعَمري لَقَد حَسَّنتِ شَغباً إِلى بَدا

    إِلَيَّ وَأَوطاني بِلادٌ سِواهُما

    By my life, you have indeed made Shaghb through to Bada lovely

    to me, though my homelands lie in neither place.

  2. حَلَلتِ بِهَذا حَلَّةً ثُمَّ حَلَّةً

    بِهَذا فَطابَ الوادِيانِ كِلاهُما

    You stayed in this one for a time, then for a time

    in that one, and both valleys grew lovely.
