Loyalty has departed like yesterday gone by.
Loyalty has gone, gone like yesterday gone
And people are either deceivers or dissemblers.
And people are deceptive and evasive

يبدون بينهم المودة والصفا
وقلوبهمand their hearts محشوةstuffed بعقاربwith scorpions
وقلوبهم محشوة بعقارب
They display affection and sincerity among themselves,
They show affection and purity between them
Yet their hearts are stuffed with scorpions.
Yet their hearts are filled with scorpions
