1. Rise and behold with us the wonders of time
In which shooting was prescribed for men
١. قُم تَأَمَّل بِنا عَجائِبَ دَهرٍ
كُتِبَت فيهِ لِلرِجالِ الرِماكُ
2. And the mother of children has not rejoiced in joy
Since they said the father of children is being shot
٢. وَما أَسَرَّت أُمُّ العِيالِ سُروراً
مُنذُ قالوا أَبو العِيالِ يُناكُ
3. And the fortune shrinks until the
Share in it decreases and competitors increase
٣. وَيَخِسُّ النَصيبُ حَتّى يَقِلَّ ال
حَظُّ فيهِ وَيَكثُرُ الأَشراكُ
4. The flat green land was led by it
Resembling what leads the competitor
٤. قُدَّتِ الفِلوَةُ الخُضَيراءُ مِنهُ
شَبَهاً مِثلَ ما يُقَدُّ الشِراكُ
5. So the eyelid has a spasm that shows
Wisdom in it and in the brow admonition
٥. فَعَلى العَينِ تَخيَةٌ تُظهِرُ الحِك
كَةَ فيها وَفي العِجانِ حُكاكُ
6. A sagacity that increases confusion and a lame
Unfeeling leg in which there is no movement
٦. فَقهَةٌ تُكثِرُ الحَراكَ وَأَيرٌ
ساقِطُ الحِسِّ لَيسَ فيهِ حَراكُ
