How many enviers whose outward appearance to me is friendly

كم حاسد ظاهره لي وامق

1. How many enviers whose outward appearance to me is friendly
Yet malice from them sticks in the conscience

١. كَمْ حَاسِدٍ ظَاهِرُهُ لِي وَامِقُ
وَالْغِلُّ مِنْهُ بِالضَّمِيْرِ لاَصِقُ

2. People inform me of their secret
Rarely does the hypocrite conceal

٢. تُخْبِرُنِي عَنْ سِرِّهِ الخَلاَئِقُ
وَقَلَّ مَا يَنْكَتِمُ المُنَافِقُ

3. They have a heart which, if they see me, falters
And if I'm absent, with injustice speaks

٣. لَهُ فُؤَادٌ إِنْ رَآنِي خَافِقٌ
وَإِنْ أَغِبْ فَهْوَ بِجَوْرٍ نَاطِقُ

4. They lie, yet in suspicion are truthful
And every coward in private is quick

٤. يَكْذِبُ وَهْوَ فِي التَّظَنِّي صَادِقُ
وَكُلُّ مُجْرٍ فِي الخَلاَءِ سَابِقُ
