1. I saw Siraj ad-Din apt for slapping
Yet in his knowledge, corrupt in mind
١. رأيتُ سراجَ الدِّين للصّفْع صالحاً
ولكنّهُ في علْمه فاسدُ الذِّهن
2. Cover him with your palm, fearing his extinction
For his flaw is the excess oil quenching his flame
٢. استره بالكفِّ خوفَ انطفائه
وآفتُه منْ طَفْئه كثرَةُ الدُّهن
