Ibn al-Labbâna (11th c.):   Mallorca


مدینة میورقة     


بلد اعارته الحمامة طو قها
      وکساه حلة ریشه الطاووس
وکانما تلك المیاه مدامة
      وکان قیعان الدیار کئوس


Medina Mayurqa

This city has taken from the dove her collar
       and the peacock clothed her with her feathers.
The water of her fountains is like wine
       and her courtyards are similar to goblets.
