1. Whoever takes multiple wives without shelter
Has brought harm or caused harm

2. Polygamy is only a concession, so if
You are excessive in it, you commit folly and danger

3. Whoever diminishes the right of his first wife for a second
Will not be forgiven by his Lord if he apologizes

4. And in polygamy, if you comprehend its wisdom
It is righteousness, mercy, and healing for the broken one

5. For the beautiful divorced woman, who will protect her?
And for the spinsters whose life passes in frustration

6. And for the widows and the grieving ones who squeeze her
And grief decimates the broken ones if squeezed

7. And for the mother of orphans, would it evade them
With moderation, while bent over and tired out?

8. What is the cover for she who slipped and was gripped
By the specter of scandal that sends warnings?

9. And what is the way to an eminent lineage
If you are a barren husband whose lot is stumbling?

10. It is polygamy, how many orphans it sheltered
And orphan-like ones, and how many it consoled and covered

11. It is the licit that eliminates the illicit, and how much
Did it protect the woman or man from lewdness?

12. Take multiple wives if you are able, but justly and kindly
Do not give desire hearing or sight

13. And manage your subjects with true love, you will find
Your abundance, no jealousy complaining nor envy

14. Do not fear poverty, how many families were sated
With honor, wealth, while the individual failed and was impoverished
