1. I have frequented cemeteries often,
Ali son of Yahya, neighbor of cemetery dwellers.

2. Except it be the dead of meanness that is seen,
It is the dead of generosity, the dead of glorious deeds.

3. The Armenian sees no virtue,
Except his cow, fat for the butcher.

4. You have stolen the arrows of the Muslims, yet you were not
Present for them the day the polytheists marched forth.
