1. البِرُّ بي مِنكَ وَطَّا العُذرَ عِندَكَ لي

    فيما أَتاكَ فَلَم تَعذِل وَلَم تَلُمِ

    Your kindness toward me paved the way for my excuse before you

    concerning what reached you, so you neither reproached nor blamed me.

  2. وَقامَ عِلمُكَ بي فَاِحتَجَّ عِندَكَ لي

    فَقامَ شاهِدُ عَدلٍ غَيرُ مُتَّهَمِ

    And your knowledge of me rose and pleaded my case before you;

    thus it stood as an upright witness, beyond suspicion.
