1. My worries have struck me and struck others
With one who objects and disrupts my comfort
١. ومعتَرضٍ بعارضِ راحَتَيهِ
همي فأَصابَني وأصابَ غَيري
2. So I've become, through some of my troubles with it
To think generosity is some of the sons of Zuheir
٢. فصرتُ ببعضِ ما عانَيتُ منه
أظنُّ الجودَ بعضَ بَني زُهيرِ
3. I say, as generosity has given him a cup
So he flew drunk with all the birds
٣. أقول وقد سَقاه الجودُ كأساً
فطارَ بسُكرِه مع كلِّ طيرِ
4. Maybe Muhammad will wake and be sober
Remaining ahead of all good
٤. لعلَّ مُحمداً يَصحُو فيَضحى
مقيماً قد تقدَّمَ كلَّ خيرِ
