1. أُنادي رَصيفاً لي هُناك وإنَّني

    أُحِبُّ رَصيفي فوقَ حَبِّ الورَى طُرَّا

    I call out to a peer of mine there, and indeed I

    Love my peer more than I love all humankind.

  2. أخي كُلُّ مالي دمعةٌ وإخالُها

    لِمِثلِك مِن مِثلي تَقُومُ له عُذرا

    My brother, all I have is a tear, and I think it

    Will serve as an excuse for one like me before one like you.

  3. أشاعِرَ فاسٍ دونَ سابِقِ رُؤيةٍ

    عليكَ سَلامُ اللهِ مِن شاعِر الحَمرا

    O poet of Fez, though we have never met,

    God's peace be upon you, from the poet of al-Hamra.
