1. My friend, stop for a little
And inquire about me with Lameesa

2. About the one whose heart was struck
During her passage so he became depressed

3. And I have a cousin who will not
Stop harming me, a wicked conspirer

4. Temptation arose in him so he felt
After innocence an affliction hard to bear

5. Either openly or secretly drunk
Eating and babbling nonsense

6. I saw the sons of my father
Beckoning maliciously towards me

7. Angry with me, you will never see
Any wretched traces left in them by me

8. They frowned with faces grim and stern
Like ferocious lions roaring

9. If I were water I would not be
Sweet tasting or touched

10. Salt far away in depth whose
Stones have crumbled from decay

11. Protected what your hands have not grasped
And means towards them ominous
