1. With abundant provisions on either flank
Like the enduring camel laden
١. وَزِقٍّ وافِرِ الجَنبَي
نِ مِثلِ الجَمَلِ البازِل
2. With it I went to my friends
And my perfect father reproached me
٢. بِهِ رُحتُ إِلى صَحبي

At the monastery on the coast
٣. شَرِبناهُ وَقَد بِتنا

4. And we did not accept from the slanderer
The acceptance of the ignorant fool
٤. وَلَم نَقبَل مِنَ الواشي
قَبول الجاهِلِ الخاطِل
