A youth from Kindar came mocking ill-omen,

أقبل من كندر مسيخرة

1. A youth from Kindar came mocking ill-omen,
Though on his face were its apparent signs.

للنحسِ في وجههِ عَلاماتُ

2. He frequents the abodes of the prince, though he
Is proper to be the theme of admonitions.

موضع أمثالِهِ الخراباتُ

3. Before him is Hell, but behind him reprieve,
Like a garden, the breadth of it the skies.

كجنّةٍ عرضُها السماواتُ
