O Master President, answer my question,

أيها العالم الرئيس أجبني

1. O Master President, answer my question,
For you are the Lord of meanings,

١. أَيُّها العالِمُ الرَئيسُ أَجِبني
عَن سُؤالي فَأَنتَ رَبُّ المَعاني

2. Three yet five have stumped me,
Problems that have not been untied with eight,

٢. أَعجَزَتني ثَلاثَةٌ وَهيَ خَمسٌ
مُشكِلاتٌ ما لَم تُنَط بِثَماني

3. Yet if you reverse then misspell them,
They become one of the animals.

٣. فَإِذا ما عَكَستَها ثُمَّ صَحَّفـ
ـتَ غَدَت واحِداً مِنَ الحَيَوانِ
