1. He steals souls with his sorcery
A dog who is inspired with madness
١. يختلسُ الأنفسَ باستلابِهْ
كلبٌ يُلقَّى الوحيَ من كلَّابِهِ
2. He deceives the people of the house with his gain
I lured him and he yielded to his folly
٢. يَمونُ أهلَ البيتِ باكتسابِهْ
أهبَبْتُه فانصاعَ في إهبابِهِ
3. As if he were a planet in its setting
Or a meteor's glowing ember seized from its blaze
٣. كأنَّه الكوكبُ في انصبابِهْ
أو قبسٌ يُلقَطُ من شِهابِهْ
