1. I say to those who ask about Bilal
And Abdullah among our noble men

2. Bilal was the most devout we ever saw
And Abdullah the most devout after Bilal

3. They are brothers, one corrupted
The other loose-lipped and shameless

4. Their features resemble the brood of Ham
Their mother is like a slave girl

5. As for their father we saw
Dark-faced, devoid of beauty

6. Thus they disgraced Abu Musa
With their apostasy and misguidance
