1. She said, I see you reproach me though I've done no wrong,
And many women there are who are less than me.

2. You described me with traits that stirred up my grievance,
And saw not my roses and jasmine bouquet.

3. So I said, I've no charm in love to intercede for me,
No dinars in my pocket to sanctify me.

4. For women have standards by which they measure
Men's love, devoid of reason and religion.
