1. You argue with me, your words like pearls
With sincere advice flowing from your thoughts
١. تُحاجيني وَلَفظُكَ مِثلُ دُرّ
لِهُ مِن فِكرِكَ الواري نِصاحُ
2. And you excel in knowledge, the most eminent
In the mornings when cups are passed around the club
٢. وَقِدحُكَ في العُلومِ هُوَ المُعَلّى
غَداةَ تُجالُ في النادي القِداحُ
3. With a husband who is wholly masculine
And a wife who is wholly licentious
٣. بِبَعلٍ كُلُّهُ ذِكرٌ صَحيحٌ
وَأُنثى كُلُّها فَرجٌ مُباحُ
4. One spreads her legs, the other gets an erection
Yet those wounds do not hurt either of them
٤. وتُفضى هذِهِ وَيُجَبُّ هذا
وَلا تُؤذيهِما تِلكَ الجِراحُ
