1. قُم تَأَمَّل بِنا عَجائِبَ دَهرٍ

    كُتِبَت فيهِ لِلرِجالِ الرِماكُ

    Rise, and contemplate with us the marvels of an age

    In which mares were decreed for men.

  2. وَما أَسَرَّت أُمُّ العِيالِ سُروراً

    مُنذُ قالوا أَبو العِيالِ يُناكُ

    And the children's mother has harbored no joy

    Since they said, "The children's father is fucked."

  3. وَيَخِسُّ النَصيبُ حَتّى يَقِلَّ ال

    حَظُّ فيهِ وَيَكثُرُ الأَشراكُ

    And the portion grows paltry, until the

    share in it dwindles and the partners multiply.

  4. قُدَّتِ الفِلوَةُ الخُضَيراءُ مِنهُ

    شَبَهاً مِثلَ ما يُقَدُّ الشِراكُ

    The little green filly was cut from him

    In likeness, as a sandal-strap is cut.

  5. فَعَلى العَينِ تَخيَةٌ تُظهِرُ الحِك

    كَةَ فيها وَفي العِجانِ حُكاكُ

    So upon the eye is a twitch that reveals the itch-

    ing in it, and in the perineum an itch.

  6. فَقهَةٌ تُكثِرُ الحَراكَ وَأَيرٌ

    ساقِطُ الحِسِّ لَيسَ فيهِ حَراكُ

    An anus that moves a great deal, and a cock

    Bereft of sensation, with no movement in it.
