1. My departure was delayed, though my supplies were ready,
And my entrance was into a numerous company.

2. My day has set, how many proofs have passed you by,
Do you have a maternal uncle that you may be known, or a paternal uncle?

3. By my life, you were created by Allah as He willed,
Without a father in reason, nor a mother.

4. Your mercy, O created human,
Your life is death, and foods are like poison.

5. If you lack reason, you are blissful in ignorance,
And if you gain it, worries arise.

6. People I have seen will not unite in praising you,
Rather they will unite in blaming you.
