1. The doctor with his medicine and drugs
Cannot prevent what bad is bound to come
١. إِنَّ الطَبيبَ بِطِبِّهِ وَدَوائِهِ
لا يَستَطيعُ دِفاعَ مَكروهٍ أَتى
2. Why should the doctor die of that disease
Which he used to cure and heal before
٢. ما لِلطَبيبِ يَموتُ بِالداءِ الَّذي
قَد كانَ يُبرِئُ جُرحَهُ فيما مَضى
3. Both the healer and the healed have gone
And seller of the drug and buyer too
٣. ذَهَبَ المُداوي وَالمُداوى وَالَّذي
جَلَبَ الدَواءَ وَباعَهُ وَمَنِ اِشتَرى
