1. They claimed I'm a chubby bird
But I'm not a chubby bird
١. زَعَمُوا أَنِّي بُرْطَالْ
وَأَنَا لَسْتُ بِبُرْطَالْ
2. The chubby bird is a bird
That pinches seeds with its beak
٢. إِنَّمَا الْبُرْطَالُ طَيْرٌ
يَنْشُلُ الْحَبَّ بِمِنْشَالْ
3. The chubby bird deserves a slap
And I deserve a thousand gold coins
٣. وَجَزَا الْبُرْطَالِ فَلْسٌ
وَجَزَائِي أَلْفُ مِثْقَالْ
4. For I'm a polite gentleman
Who entertains people with words
٤. وَأَنَا شَخْصٌ ظَرِيفٌ
أُطْرِبُ النَّاسَ بِأَقْوَالْ
