1. So say to the servants of God, if Jafar
Had lived, he would not have succeeded and you would be dead,
١. فقل لعبيد اللَه لو كان جعفر
هو الحي لم ينجح وأنت قتيل
2. And you would not have taken revenge and vengeance for them,
With his hand wielding the polished sword of flies,
٢. ولم تيبع المراق والثار فيهم
وفي كفه عصب الذباب صقيل
3. To a group who wanted your brother and disbelieved
Your father, so what can you say after that?
٣. إلى معشر أردوا أخاك واكفروا
أباك فماذا بعد ذاك تقول
4. So no kinship remains for you from one of kinship,
Seeker of vengeance, while the disgraced remains disgraced.
٤. فلا وصلتك الرحم من ذي قرابةٍ
وطالب وتر والذليل ذليل
5. You left an aging brother despoiled in his glory,
While the despised one of loose bridle saved you.
٥. تركت أخا شيبان يسلب بزه
ونجاك خوار العنان مطول
