For goodness sake, you never cease to blame me

لعمرك ما تنفك عني ملامة

1. For goodness sake, you never cease to blame me
O clansmen of Ja'far, no rancor stirred Ja'far

١. لَعَمرُكَ ما تَنفَكُّ عَنّي مَلامَةً
بَنو جَعفَرٍ ما هَيَّجَ الضَغنُ جَعفَرا

2. When I said this as his affection returned
His malice in his breast refused but to remember

٢. إِذا قُلتُ هَذا حينَ راجَعَ وُدُّها
أَبى حِقدُها في الصَدرِ إِلّا تَذَكُّرا

3. The ruin of horses they met, and would oft
Meet the like of them, then more

٣. لِمَهلَكِ أَفراسٍ أُصِبنَ وَرُبَّما
أَصابوا بِها أَمثالَها ثُمَّ أَكثَرا

4. Of people of the land, after wealth and neighbors
And left for them in me, scenes of sadness unveiled

٤. مِنَ الأَرضِ أَهلاً بَعدَ مالٍ وَجيرَةٍ
وَأَبقَت لَهُم مِنّي مَآتِمَ حُسَّرا
