1. They tell me to satirize the drummer, but they were
Talking about the man famous among people for drums

2. So I said maybe the ignorant are hurt
By my saying which excelled in ignorance

3. And the satire of the mean people is more fragrant to their meanness
Like the dust of a sandal shaken off by the sandal

4. But I will praise him, for
The meaning of my throwing the pearl in the mud will become clear
