Imru’u-l-Qays: Diwan of Imru’u-l-Qays (6th century)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Taken from: The Diwan of Imru Al Qais Ibn Hujr Ibn Kinda Ibn Qahtan:
Diwan Al Khirniq Bint Badr Ibn Hiffan. Akhbar of Sulaik by Imru’ al-Qays William Penn College
Also called Amr’olkais (Emro-l-Cais) (Imri’u-l-Qays)
On a path not guided by its landmarks
When the strong camel sniffs grumbling
On each short tail horse trained to night
Trips for mail, strong Barbary horses
Lean as swift gada wolves that you see
With the sweat dripping from the sides
The Berbera here talked about are according to Ibn Kaldun the people who possess Mogadishu.
