1. لَعَمرُكَ ما الأَرزاقُ يَومَ اِكتِيالِها

    بِأَكثَرَ خُبزاً مِن خَوانِ العُذافِرِ

    By your life, provisions, on the day they are measured out,

    are no more abundant in bread than al-ʿUdhāfir’s table.

  2. وَلَو ضافَهُ الدَجّالُ يَلتَمِسُ القِرى

    وَحَلَّ عَلى خَبّازِهِ بِالعَساكِرِ

    Even if the Dajjāl visited him, seeking hospitality,

    and descended upon his baker with armies,

  3. بِعِدَّةِ يَأجوجٍ وَمَأجوجَ جُوَّعاً

    لَأَشبَعَهُم شَهراً غَداءُ العُذافِرِ

    as numerous as Gog and Magog, all starving,

    al-ʿUdhāfir’s morning meal would sate them for a month.
