1. Have you not seen that I have taken a concubine
And was like one who led the she-camel and let her run loose?

2. And the enemies, O Mayya, have kindled a fire. So be aware
That with every misfortune they have lit a blaze and I see no refuge.

3. The summoner to good is never without a follower,
Nor is the summoner to evil ever without one driven by passion.
