1. He sleeps with a belly full of his friend's flesh
Wearing a shirt of piety and seeking praise

2. He sleeps when the night spreads its darkness
And goes about his business with a panther's sleep

3. He keeps watch over the virgins of his people whenever night falls
For him the night and its darkness are like a lion in ambush

4. Bold in consuming and doing what is unlawful
But cowardly when facing his peers, tucked inside his coat
