لعَنوا بريّاً منْ خبائِثِ ظنّهِمْ

لعَنوا بريّاً منْ خبائِثِ ظنّهِمْ

فاللهُ يَلْعَنُ أهْلَ سوقِ العنْبَرِ

فاللهُ يَلْعَنُ أهْلَ سوقِ العنْبَرِ

They cursed a man innocent of the evils they suspected;

They cursed an innocent with their evil assumptions,

may God curse the people of the amber market!

So may God curse the people of the amber market.

واللهِ لا أوْطأتُ ساقي سُوقَهُمْ

واللهِ لا أوْطأتُ ساقي سُوقَهُمْ

أبَدَ الزّمانِ فتِلْكَ سوقُ العَنْ بَري

أبَدَ الزّمانِ فتِلْكَ سوقُ العَنْ بَري

By God, I shall never set foot in their market

By God, I will never set foot in their market,

for all time—for that is the market of “Curse an innocent!”

For all time, for that is the market of shame.
