بالأندلس

a chuva bate quando a chuva cai,
hora de chegar e amar na Andalusia!

جادك الغيث إذا الغيث همى

يا زمان الوصل بالأندلس

Ibn al-Khatib 1313-1374

quales sumus talia sunt tempora

הלל אומר: במקום שאין אנשים השתדל להיות איש

Ó Stôr!

The only indigenous attempt - and a schematic one at that - at simplifying the complex rules of Classical Arabic was Anis Furayḥa's نحو عربية ميسرة [Towards a Simplified Arabic], published in 1955. There is a presumably apocryphal story that when some of Furayḥa's academic colleagues who earned their living teaching Classical Arabic saw the title of his book, they protested, يا استاذ شلينا نعيس - liberally translated, "Oh Professor, please don't take away our livelihood!"
