1. O rider, if you pass by my beloved
Convey my greetings to the one far from me, a servant of the sun and a Hashemite

2. Why didn’t you command when it was time for your departure
That I be rebuked except for Hassan if he is one who reproaches

3. May my daughter be bereaved if Majid does not hack you to pieces
With a sword that repels the likes of you, O protector

4. And if you do not say to yourself in secret, “I have attained
A generous man, and in the morning I became regretful”

5. Choose from three, all of them humiliations:
Chains and shackles that disgrace the newcomer

6. And you are left like a dog licking his sores
And you are dragged away in humiliation, sitting in sin
