1. إِلى اللَهِ أَشكو أَنَّني كُنتُ نائِماً

    فَقامَ سُلولِيٌّ فَبالَ عَلى رِجلي

    To God I complain that I was asleep,

    when a man of Sulaym rose and urinated on my leg.

  2. فَقُلتُ لِأَصحابي اِقطَعوها فَإِنَّني

    كَريمٌ وَإِنّي غَيرُ مُدخِلُها رَحلي

    So I said to my companions, “Cut it off, for indeed I

    am noble, and will not take it into my quarters or baggage.”
