1. Do you deny, O son of Isaac, my brotherhood
And reckon the water of others from my vessel?

2. Shall I speak estrangement of you after my knowledge
That you are the best of those under the sky?

3. And dislike more than the taste of the sword's blade
And go farther in affairs than destiny?

4. I have not reached twenty years old
So how have I wearied of a long life?

5. I have not exhausted praising you in my eulogy
To detract anything from it with blame.

6. This morning my saying "This is a night" was a gift,
Are the people blind to the illumination?

7. You obey the envious ones and you are a man
I was made your ransom while they are my ransom.

8. He who does not distinguish my words
From their foolish prattle rebukes himself.

9. And of the wonders is that you see me
And make me equal to less than vapor.

10. And you deny their death while I am Suhayl,
I rose at the death of the sons of adultery.
