1. I declared my love for Jumal openly
And her status became known after being hidden

2. The slanderers schemed between us
Until I avoided her without actually abandoning her

3. Shall I send her a messenger like a vigorous stallion
A fleet-footed smooth rock hyrax sent on an errand

4. As if it were a reddish fox refreshed
By the water of Maawan after being possible

5. So it set out brisk as polished iron
Amidst the goats coming from a lofty settlement

6. Its forelegs swaying bent
In an undesired makeshift mule saddle

7. It swims across the water of fox cubs so it left them behind
And its watering place was the water of Hauran

8. The daughters of water rest in it shaded
As if their eyes were little horses

9. So it did not neglect but waded into its depths
Quenching thirst with sweet undiluted water

10. Woe to the mother of a people whose chiefs we saw yesterday
Afflicted with misfortunes that pained the best of neighbors

11. They pasture absently, and if they fall short clearly
Generous men show sympathy for what the offender did

12. And the two plowers raced ahead
To their goals, pardoned just as the two racers did

13. And the two givers seeking praise, their money
Is not worth praise, which can only be bought at a sinful price
