1. I disobeyed people both early and late
And my disobedience to them was in the guise of obedience
١. عَصيتُ الناسَ في عَودٍ وَبِدءٍ
وَعِصياني لَهُم في زَيِّ طاعَه
2. I deceived them, fearing they might see me
And I made myself vulnerable to the zealots
٢. أَداريهُم مَخافَةَ أَن تَراني
وَعِرضي عُرضَةً لِذَوي الزَماعَه
