Note 45 — NUR AL-DIN ALI AND THE DAMSEL ANIS AL-JALIS
Richard Francis Burton translation
Wayfarers, travellers who have a claim on the kindness of those at home: hence Abd al-Rahman al-Burai sings in his famous Ode:—
He hath claim on the dwellers in the places of their birth,
Whoso wandereth the world, for he lacketh him a home.
It is given in my "First Footsteps in East Africa" (pp. 53-55).
