1. He wants to be rewarded with kindness
For the soul that did evil
١. وَيُريدُ أن يُجزى بإح
سانٍ على النَّفسِ المُسيئَة
2. And he loves to hasten reward
While his repentance remains weak
٢. ويُحِبُّ تعجيلَ الثَّوا
بِ وعَقدُ توبتِهِ نَسيئة
3. His delusions do not fade
For in every pasture he wants to roam
٣. لَيست تَفيءُ وهمُّها
في كل غُنمٍ أن تُفيئَه
