1. متى ما تُحِط خُبراً بنا يا ابنَعاصِمٍ

    تَجِد لي رجالاً من بني العَمِّ حُسَّدا

    Whenever you come to know us fully, O Ibn Asim,

    you will find men among my paternal cousins envious of me.

  2. وما ذاكَ عن ذنبٍ إليهم جَنَيتُهُ

    سِوى أنَّ لي ذكراً أغارَ وأَنجدَا

    And that is not because of any offense I have committed against them,

    save that my renown has reached the lowlands and the highlands.
