1. When he brought the news in the noble bird
Sent to the messenger

2. In news that came, Aban told it
About Anas in the first era

3. And this, while Qais recites it from
A ship with a shifting helm

4. A ship made possible by its righteousness
While Anas betrayed and did not act justly

5. In his response to the master of all people
Their protector in the revealed decree

6. So the Lord of the Throne turned him from his righteousness
And afflicted him with leprous spots
