إليك أذم حمام ابن موسى

إليك أذم حمام ابن موسى

وإن فاق المنى طيباً وحرا

وإن فاق المنى طيباً وحرا

To you I speak ill of Ibn Musa's bathhouse,

To you I lament the bath of Ibn Musa's son

Though it surpasses all wishes in pleasantness and heat.

Though it surpassed wishes in scent and heat

تكاثرت اللصوص عليه حتى

ليحفى من يطيف به ويعرى

ليحفى من يطيف به ويعرى

Thieves have grown so numerous there that

Thieves multiplied upon it until

Whoever frequents it is left barefoot and naked.

It was guarded by those who encircled it bare

ولم أفقد به ثوباً ولكن

ولم أفقد به ثوباً ولكن

دخلت محمداً وخرجت بشرا

دخلت محمداً وخرجت بشرا

And I lost no garment there, yet

I did not lose a garment within it but

I entered as Muhammad and left as Bishr.

I entered as Muhammad and left as Bashar
