Uways Al Qarani At The Yemen Country

God's lover prophet's dear friend
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country
Neither tell a lie nor eat prohibited
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

At the dawn standing up wanded to road
With his thousand titles praised the Lord
Saying Allah Allah, grazed camels herd
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

At his hand his baton from branch of date
At his waist his cardigan from camel hide
By his tongue never ever becomes mistake 
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country

Wish that i would go too, Jonah the Lover says
Wish to see his face that is lovely and blessed 
To the dust of his foot wish to daub my face 
Uways Al Qarani at the Yemen country
