Its people and women are of ill repute.
١. لَقَد بُدِّلَت نَجرانُ بَعدَ مُلوكِها
مَخاليفَ سوءٍ قَومُها وَنِساؤُها
2. Though the Merciful dissuaded from evil deeds,
Only a few strange tongues visit it now.
٢. وَإِن زَجَرَ الرَحمَنُ عَن مُصمَئِلَّةٍ
أَتاها عَلاجيمٌ قَليلٌ حِباؤُها
3. They want to hide from God their shame
When they come to it naked under thin cover.
٣. يُريدونَ أَن يُخفوا مِنَ اللَهِ لَعنَةً
إِذا ما أَتَوها وَهيَ بادٍ غِطاؤُها
4. Your women, your spouses, your daughters
Are tents whose pegs are dinars given for reward.
٤. نِساأُكُمُ كَنّاتُكُم وَبَناتُكُم
مَياميسُ أُحدانُ الفُلوسِ عَطاؤُها
