1. They said to him, "Return the donkey for your
Father is a scoundrel, his head and his armies

2. You wish he were more gentle
To your father, but his son distracts him

3. They did not dress him in armor until
His joints underneath his skin fell from disgrace

4. Was he anything but a fox pleased with himself
For the wave he rode was as high as mountains rolled by him

5. He chewed out a bite in the sea when
Its high waves and its low crashed down upon him

6. So he woke up thrown behind his rubbish
Where the roar of the sea met its coast

7. What good are you if you miss the estate of Darim
And whatever Kulaib may build and fight for it

8. They said to ‘Ibbad aid us, for they saw
Death's droplets pour down, soaking its floods

9. ‘Ibbad does not have for them any of my two horses
Whose legs race when evil bites their thighs

10. You have fallen for a sheikh who did not birth you
While you hide and diminish your own father

11. By God my honor, if I give away my jewel
To the owner of the black spot on his shoulder

12. A coward who has never held a sword
But instead holds the walking stick of the two holy sites

13. The young camel bleats to him if
The wind blows it from knowing one who will not abandon it

14. It has help whose companions are its allies
Its loads from them and its beginnings from them

15. Marked are their shoulders from its riding
And its resting places are known from their signs

16. Do not claim if your people did not find
A generous one among them other than the wretched of them
