المحرق المزني

وإني لأهوى من هوى بعض أهله

Roses are red, violets are blue, I cannot translate, so nothing to you.

ألا كل خال سوف يحبو ابن أخته

Indeed every uncle will soon love his sister's son

سميت باسم التيس لؤما وذلة

I was named for the audacity and disgrace of the he-goat

والله لو أدبرت ماهبت الصبا

By God, if I turned away I would not have yielded to the breeze
