   • 10th century, Al-Mutanabbi, Diwan of Mutanabbi:

     أَلَا كُلُّ مَاشِيَةِ ٱلْخَيْزَلَى
     فِدَا كُلِّ مَاشِيَةِ ٱلْهَيْذَبَى
     وَكُلِّ نَجَاةٍ بُجَاوِيَّةٍ
     خَنُوفٍ وَمَا بِيَ حُسْنُ ٱلْمِشَى

     ʔalā kullu māšiyati l-ḵayzalā
     fidā kulli māšiyati l-hayḏabā
     wakulli najātin bujāwiyyatin
     ḵanūfin wamā biya ḥusnu l-mišā

     Indeed, all the mincing women are
     a ransom for all the fast she-camels
     and for all the fleet Bujawi rescuing camels
     straddling in gait for I don't possess elegance of gait either.
