1. Does he bear a burden without loading himself,
The calendar of the doomed son of Abdelwahid?

2. He led men over families, without considering
That pimps get the wage of the leader.

3. His craft succeeded, so he closed his eyes,
From what the eye of the sincere adviser sees.

4. Evil is hoped for the girl he protects,
And the hoped for the reform of a corrupt matter.

5. And I wondered at the son of Al-Marzuban and his denial
Of my good stances and scenes.

6. Whatever his transgression against me, I still love him
The mistake of an errant or deliberate wrongdoer.

7. You lost from me a dear friend whose keeping
I endured the enemy’s spite and the envier’s grudge.

8. Haughty, as if ascending,
Or the lord of a gift from the sons of Sa’eed.

9. I am fed up with you, and you are not one with me,
So take the substitute of an impartial or remote one.

10. And know that you are one of many
Who increased, and I am one of one.
