يا اهيل الزمل المغيرة اعطوهي كرب الرسنّة [لِرسِنَة: جمع رسن] عندي قعود من بيت الجود بيلحق ما بيلحقنّه اربع ناقات ماهن شينات حنّنْ عليه وربّنّه ما بياكل غير النوارة وما ياكل العشبة المصنّة شداقو دق من البلوط دقّ القدوم المنسنّة أَلْحَقْتِ بُه ستين اوقة قام بْهِنْ ما رجَحنّه من شرق برير يمشي و يميل ما تفرق زوله من ظلّه وشرق غزة الملتزّة صفِّ الغزلان دونٍ منّه قَلَطْت الدير وحتى الخان العجّة ما طارت عنّه شرقي رفح زاد و طفح و خزامو تقَطَّعْ منّه عند العريش تلقى تفتيش حتى التفتيش فلت منّه يوم وصل بلاد الأمانة و الهّرش بيسرك ع سنّه

O riders of the raiding camels loosen the reins for them I have a young camel from a noble line it outruns all others Four she-camels none unworthy raised him with tenderness He eats only the blossoms never the coarse grass His jaw is as hard as oak struck by a sharpened adze I loaded him with sixty ounces he carried them without falling From east of Barir he moves and sways you can’t tell him from his shadow And east of Gaza the clinging place the rows of gazelles fall short of him He passed the monastery and the inn even the dust couldn’t rise behind him East of Rafah he surged ahead his halter tore apart from the force At Al-‘Arīsh he encountered patrols yet they couldn't catch him When he reached the safe land and the scratching was pulling him on his tooth
