1. قل للخطير الذي مكارمه

    قد عظمت في زمانه خطره

    Say to al-Khatir, whose noble deeds

    have raised his standing in his time,

  2. وأقسم المجد أن صاحبه

    لا يتقي شره ولا أشره

    and Glory swore that his companion

    fears neither his evil nor his insolence:

  3. ليت نداه في حق خادمه

    دان بحب الصحابة العشرة

    would that his bounty toward his servant

    professed love for the ten Companions!

  4. تشيع في السماح يبغضه

    كل محب للخمسة البرره

    Shi'ism in generosity is hated

    by every lover of the five righteous ones.
