وَأَبو بُرَيذَعَةَ الَّذي حُدِّثتُهُ

وَأَبو بُرَيذَعَةَ الَّذي حُدِّثتُهُ

فينا أَذَلُّ مِنَ الخَصِيِّ الدَيزَجِ

فينا أَذَلُّ مِنَ الخَصِيِّ الدَيزَجِ

And Abū Buraydha—the man I was told about—

And Abu Buraydhaʿa, of whom I was told,

is more abject among us than the eunuch al-Dayzaj.

Is among us more abased than the dark-hued castrate.
