1. Unjust oppressors don't treat me fairly
They make promises just to fail me
١. ظُلومٌ لَيسَ يُنصِفُني
يُواعِدُني فَيُخلِفُني
2. They resent what I task them with
While I give what they task me
٢. يَضِنُّ بِما أُكَلِّفُهُ
وَأَبذُلُ ما يُكَلِّفُني
3. They say when I complain to them
Of what I face "Do you know me?"
٣. يَقولُ وَقَد شَكَوتُ إِلَي
هِ ما أَلقى أَتَعرِفُني
4. I said "How can I not recognize
Those who torture and torment me?"
٤. فَقُلتُ لَهُ أَأُنكِرُ مَن
يُعَذِّبُني وَيُتلِفُني
