A fine young man—if only he knew his Lord
Oh what a fine lad he'd be if he knew his Lord
and observed his prayer times—is Hammad!
And established the times of his prayer, Hammad

And his face has turned white from drinking wine,
His face whitened from drinking wine
but its whiteness on the Day of Reckoning will be blackness.
Yet on Judgement Day his blackness appears
