1. This world has wearied me
Staying in it is tiring

2. The unjust have denied me
And left me no dignity here

3. My stillness is not from weakness
But from dignity and pride

4. I have a soul that taught me
How to disdain the vile

5. I have manners I see
As the pinnacle of knowledge

6. And a knight who wishes only
A smile to be sunrise

7. Meanness is known even if
A turban is upon the head

8. Every vile upstart
Has a mark on his face

9. I did not fight him with a sword
But with truth and justice

10. If I grant him a slap with a sandal
I would match it to his station
