We suffered in life with the company of a writer

بلينا من الدنيا بصحبة كاتب

1. We suffered in life with the company of a writer
Who combined in himself the traits of beasts

١. بُلينا مِن الدُنيا بِصُحبة كاتب
قَد اِجتَمَعت فيهِ صِفات البَهائمِ

2. We called him a beloved while he was without doubt
Repugnant and hurtful, his nature like snakes

٢. دَعوهُ حَبيباً وَهوَ لا شَكَّ أَنَّهُ
بِغَيض وَمؤذٍ طَبعهُ كَالأَراقمِ

3. A stupid, ignorant pretender with foolishness
Gluttonous and alert, his heart is blind

٣. بَليد جَهول مُدّعٍ ذو غَباوَةٍ
أَكول بصير إِنَّما قَلبهُ عَمي

4. When his rude empty nature appears
Like an empty bag taking the form of a man

٤. إِذا ما بَدا في طَبعهِ الفظِّ خلته
كَزقّ هَواً يَبدو بِصورة آدمِ
