1. قل لإمام الورى الذي يده

    مخلوقة للعطاء والنيلِ

    Say to the imam of humankind, whose hand

    was created for giving and bounty:

  2. قشيلة قد خبرت قصّته

    من حذر الشقص منك في ويلِ

    Qushayla—you have learned his story—

    is in anguish, fearing you will take a share.

  3. خيل به الساقط المهين وقد

    أخذت أموال سنقر الخيلي

    Picture him, fallen and abject, now that

    you have taken the wealth of Sunqur al-Khayli.
