1. A besmirched poet, labelled with his own besmirchment
He who labelled him found him small, thus made him smaller

2. When the orations of blame are difficult to articulate
Say of him what's in him, it won't make it more difficult

3. It's easy for his blamer to know the reason of his blame
And the hardest of his blame is to make it easy

4. That's because God covered his mention
And gave him plenty of the garments of shame

5. And how many others like him have I clothed
With a new embroidered gown with two lengths

6. So he came to be seen by eyes as glorious
Alas, an evil garb for the arrogant and boastful

7. Every blaming hand points to him
As did the hands of pilgrims point to Jamrat
