Your translations are really cool, thanks!
Only one point, I think al faranji means the foreigner.
Of course most of the time Europeans.
The word comes from the Crusades, Franks, Faranj.
Also used Roumi, the foreigners and Christians, from the Byzantine or Easterm Roman Empire... Roumi=Romans...
So the foreigner might be an Ethiopian - Christian - but it's just my opinion...
