The man who has spent the night well fed cannot be trusted,
The man who spends the night well fed is not safe,
though he has lain upon a well-prepared bed,
and spends it upon a smoothly spread bed,
جِنايَةَthe assault of مِثلِone like السيدِthe wolf يُصبِحُwakes طاوِياًhungry
جِنايَةَ مِثلِ السيدِ يُصبِحُ طاوِياً
وَيَأويand takes shelter إِلىto جُرثومَةٍa mound لَمnot تُوَسَّدِwas cushioned
وَيَأوي إِلى جُرثومَةٍ لَم تُوَسَّدِ
not to commit a crime like the wolf’s—the wolf wakes hollow-bellied
from the assault of one like a wolf, who wakes hungry
and takes shelter in an earthen lair no pillow has softened.
and takes shelter on an uncushioned mound.
