Beni Ṣakhr: "By the face of the Prophet of God! may He be exalted!"
Sherarāt (in suppressed chorus): "God! and Muḥammad the Prophet of God, upon Him be peace!"
A party in bare legs and a sheepskin:
"Cold, cold! Wāllah! rain and cold!"
Namrūd: "Silence, oh brother! descend into the well and draw corn. It is warm there."
Beni Ṣakhr: "Praise be to God the Almighty!"
Chorus of Camels: "B-b-b-b-b-dd-G-r-r-o-o-a-a."
