قل لأبي الأنكح إن جئتَهُ

قل لأبي الأنكح إن جئتَهُ

أغضبكَ اللَه بمفساها

أغضبكَ اللَه بمفساها

Tell Abu al-Ankah, if you come to him:

Tell Abu al-Ankah that if you come to him,

Tell Abu al-Ankah, should you come to him:

May God vex you with her fart-hole!

May Allah anger you for his debauchery,

"May God distress you with her wind-breaking vent."

لم يكفِها ما صنعت مرّة

لم يكفِها ما صنعت مرّة

برأس أيرٍ جوفها تاها

برأس أيرٍ جوفها تاها

What you once did was not enough for her

What she did once was not enough for her,

She was not satisfied by what she managed once,

with the head of a cock that wandered inside her,

In the head of a ewe whose insides wandered astray,

With a cock's head that wandered lost inside her.

حتى لقد دبّت إلى معشرٍ

حتى لقد دبّت إلى معشرٍ

تبلعها كالرقشِ أشباها

تبلعها كالرقشِ أشباها

so she even crept toward a group,

Until she crept to a group

Until she crept towards a gathering of men,

swallowing them—lookalikes of speckled snakes.

That swallows her like crumbs of bread,

Swallowing their members like speckled vipers.

إذا ما كنتَ جارَ أبي حسينٍ

إذا ما كنتَ جارَ أبي حسينٍ

فبت ويداكَ في طرف السلاح

فبت ويداكَ في طرف السلاح

If ever you are Abu Husayn's neighbor,

If you are a neighbor of Abu Hussein,

If you ever find yourself neighbor to Abu Hussein,

then spend the night with both hands on the end of the weapon.

Stay awake and grasp your weapon,

Then pass the night with your hand upon your weapon.

فإنّ له نساءٌ سارقاتٍ

فإنّ له نساءٌ سارقاتٍ

إذا آمَنَّ أطرافَ الرماحِ

إذا آمَنَّ أطرافَ الرماحِ

For he has thieving women:

For he has thieving wives,

For he possesses thieving women,

when they felt safe from the spearheads,

When the tips of spears are trusted,

Whenever they feel safe from the lance's tip.

سرقنَ وقد نزلنَ عليه أيري

سرقنَ وقد نزلنَ عليه أيري

فلم أظفر بهِ حتى الصباح

فلم أظفر بهِ حتى الصباح

they stole my cock, having settled down upon it,

They stole when raiders descended on an ayr,

They stole my cock—descending upon it—

and I did not recover it until morning.

I did not find it until morning,

And I did not reclaim it until the morning.

فآبَ وقد تخدّش منكباه

فآبَ وقد تخدّش منكباه

يئنّ إليّ من ألمِ الجراح

يئنّ إليّ من ألمِ الجراح

Then it returned with both its shoulders scratched,

He came back with his shoulders torn,

It returned with its shoulders scratched and raw,

groaning to me from the pain of its wounds.

Moaning to me from the pain of wounds,

Moaning to me from the pain of its wounds.

نساءُ أبي حسين صارخاتٍ

نساءُ أبي حسين صارخاتٍ

قُبيلَ الصبح حيّ علي النكاح

قُبيلَ الصبح حيّ علي النكاح

Abu Husayn's women cry out,

The wives of Abu Hussein cry out,

The women of Abu Hussein were crying out,

just before dawn: "Come to intercourse!"

At dawn, alive for marriage,

Just before dawn: "Hasten to the fuck!"

بأجراحٍ يميلُ الطعنُ عنها

بأجراحٍ يميلُ الطعنُ عنها

إلى الأردافِ تزلجُ في الفقاحِ

إلى الأردافِ تزلجُ في الفقاحِ

with gashes from which the thrust veers away,

With wounds that incline the stab

With gashes that the thrusting strikes avoid,

toward the buttocks, slipping into the assholes.

To the buttocks, sliding into debauchery.

Sliding toward the buttocks, slipping in the rear.
