يا قومِ عالَجْتُ أَيري

يا قومِ عالَجْتُ أَيري

بالحشوِ لمَّا تكعَّكْ

بالحشوِ لمَّا تكعَّكْ

O my people, I treated my cock

O people, I doctored my she-camel

by stuffing it when it curled up;

With stuffing, as it was limping,

ولمْ يصحّ ودَادِي

ولمْ يصحّ ودَادِي

من غادَةٍ مُذْ تَوَعَّكْ

من غادَةٍ مُذْ تَوَعَّكْ

and my love has not been sound

Yet my love did not get well

with a graceful maiden since it fell ill.

For one who got stuffed since you stuffed her
