1. You are not of the noblest stock,
No worshipper of the sun nor Nufailite,

2. Nor is your father a water-carrier of pilgrims.
So sit on the most inferior lineage.

3. But you are a mongrel tied to them,
As the nose ring is tied to the camel's nose.

4. Your calculations seethe with vileness,
Like the seething of mash in a cooking pot.

5. If you were from Hashim despite your defiance,
You would not disparage us, headstrong rascal.
