1. Tell the slanderer when you see him,
If only you were dead, you fool, I would not satirize you,

2. Because I honor my dignity and never
Link it to your dignity one day.

3. If you satirize me, you satirize a glorious man
Who does not glance towards the likes of you.

4. My dignity is beyond you, so satirize it wisely,
Dignities are not debased by your satire.

5. By God, if I were Jarir, I would not
Be more satirical towards you than your origins.
