"عن خوات بن جبير قال: خرجنا حجاجًا مع عمر بن الخطاب، فسرنا في ركبٍ فيهم أبو عبيدة بن الجراح، وعبد الرحمن بن عوف، فقال القوم: غَنِّنا يا خواتُ! فغناهم، فقالوا: غننا من شعرِ ضرارٍ، فقال عمر: دعوا أبا عبد اللَّه يتغنى من هُنَيَّات فؤاده - يعنى من شعره- فمازلت أغنيهم حتى إذا كان السحر فقال عمر: ارفع لسانك يا خوات فقد أسحرنا".

"From Khawwat ibn Jubayr who said: We set out as pilgrims with 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. We traveled in a caravan that included Abu 'Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah and 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf. The people said: 'Sing for us, O Khawwat!' So he sang for them. They said: 'Sing for us from the poetry of Dirar.' 'Umar said: 'Leave Abu 'Abd Allah to sing of the little sighs of his heart' - meaning from his poetry. I kept singing for them until it was the time before dawn, and 'Umar said: 'Raise your tongue, O Khawwat, for you have made us sleepless.'"
