1. Because my father's leadership is harsh
And your father is like you, none can match
١. لِأَنَّ أَبي خِلافَتُهُ شَديدٌ
وَأَنَّ أَباكَ مِثلُكَ ما عَداكَ
2. Your father is flawed and you are born of him
To an extent, as a peg matches a latch
٢. أَبوكَ مُذَمَّمٌ وَخُلِقتَ مِنهُ
عَلى قَدَرٍ كَما قُدَّ الشِراكَ
3. Your tongue is blunt, your voice is faint
And your satire goes no further than your nape
٣. لِسانُكَ مُفحَمٌ وَنَداكَ دونٌ
وَإِنَّ هَجاكَ لا يَعدو قَفاكَ
4. You speak words thinking them right
Yet your mind is that of a whore being mounted
٤. يَقولُ القَولَ تَحسَبُهُ صَواباً
وَعَقلُكَ عَقلُ مومِسَةٍ تَناكَ
