Abu Sa'id, there are lessons for us in your talk

أبا سعيد لنا في شاتك العبر

1. Abu Sa'id, there are lessons for us in your talk
That came though it has no camel or young camel

١. أَبا سَعيدٍ لَنا في شاتِكَ العِبَرُ
جاءَت وَما إِن لَها بَولٌ وَلا بَعَرُ

2. How can a sheep at your place get camel's foot disease
When its food is the two lights, sun and moon

٢. وَكَيفَ تَبعَرُ شاةٌ عِندَكُم مَكَثَت
طَعامُها الأَبيَضانِ الشَمسُ وَالقَمَرُ

3. If during its sleep it saw some fodder in its dream
It would sing for it as tears stream from its eyes

٣. لَو أَنَّها أَبصَرَت في نَومِها عَلَفاً
غَنَّت لَهُ وَدُموعُ العَينِ تَنحَدِرُ

4. O you who forbid all the pleasures of this life
I'm indeed tempted by the sight of your face

٤. يا مانِعي لَذَّةَ الدُنيا بِأَجمَعِها
إِنّي لَيَفتِنُني مِن وَجهِكَ النَظَرُ
