1. O people who have slandered us unjustly!
By God, virtue cannot be obtained through vice.

2. Will not your piety stop you from this mischief, so you refrain?
Or are you a people inherently inclined to disbelief?

3. Come, let us stand in two ranks, ours and yours,
And call upon the God of all people in the early dawn.

4. On whoever speaks falsely or seeks evil
And whoever accuses the innocent, not knowing.

5. I swear by the one to whom the Quraysh prayed
And circled at Mina on the day of departure and sacrifice.

6. They did not shave the head of any schemer
On the tenth morning of the passed month.

7. My steed has indeed become on this day
Pure, cleansed from lewdness and evil.

8. Of the white noble horses, she knows no sin,
Nor has she been covered after her rest at night.

9. None of the people have heard of her like,
Nor has she appeared on the day of Adha or Fitr.

10. Dazzling as the sun on the day it rises,
Luxuriant, she has never stepped uncomfortably.

11. She is the full moon in beauty, and women are like stars,
So different between stars and the full moon.

12. They say, a madman, crazed with her mention,
By God, there is in me no madness or sorcery.

13. If I compose poetry without mentioning her,
My poetry refuses to obey me.

14. So there is no life for me after her, and I will not live after her,
And may the world last for us until the gathering.

15. Upon her is the peace of God, from one of youthfulness,
And youth busied with worries and thoughts.

16. May God water days for us never to return,
And watering for the flourishing Abbasid era from an era.

17. Nights I gave idleness my reins,
Nights and years pass and I know not.

18. There has passed me a time, if I were given choice
Between it, and my life forever until end of time,

19. I would say, "Leave me an hour with its words
About the heedless, then cut off my life."
