1. A people inherited the house of sorrow, the first of them
As the red pattern on the arm is inherited
١. قَوْمٌ تَوَارَثَ بَيْتَ اللُّؤْمِ أَوَّلُهُمُ
كَمَا تَوَارثَ رَقْمَ الأذْرعِ الحُمُرُ
2. The first of them shunned glory and kindness
As the belly of the she-camel shuns hair
٢. تَجَنَّبَ الْمَجْد وَالمعروف أوَّلَهُمْ
كَمَا تَجَنَّبَ بَطْنَ الراحَةِ الشَّعَرْ
