1. Even if I had a house where entering was possible
I would have entertained you with music and wine in it
١. وَلَو أَنَّ لي داراً يَحِلُّ دخولُها
لَمَتَّعتكم بِالعزفِ فيها وَبِالخَمرِ
2. But I am in an evil house that is as if
It were the remnants of a na'us on the seashore
٢. وَلَكِنَّني في دار سَوءٍ كَأَنَّها
بَقيَّةِ ناووسٍ عَلى ساحِلِ البَحرِ
3. I pay to one whom Allah hastened his death
To bury him in it thirty times a month
٣. أؤدي إِلى مَن عَجَّل اللَهُ مَوتَهُ
لأدفِنَهُ فيها ثَلاثينَ في الشَهرِ
