أَبَداً مُعتَذِر لا يُعذر

أَبَداً مُعتَذِر لا يُعذر

وَمُلِطّ بِالَّذي لا يُنكر

وَمُلِطّ بِالَّذي لا يُنكر

Forever making excuses, yet never excused,

Never apologizing, no excuse is accepted

and stubbornly denying what cannot be denied;

And denying what cannot be denied

وَمَليءٌ من مساو جَمّة

وَمَليءٌ من مساو جَمّة

هُوَ مَأواها وَعَنهُ تَصدر

هُوَ مَأواها وَعَنهُ تَصدر

and full of numerous faults—

Full of diverse evils

he is their abode, and from him they spring.

It is their refuge, and from it they set forth

كُلُّ ما من غيره مُستَنكَرٌ

كُلُّ ما من غيره مُستَنكَرٌ

فَهو مِنه وَحده لا يُنكر

فَهو مِنه وَحده لا يُنكر

Whatever seems shocking coming from another

All else that is abhorred

is no surprise coming from him alone.

Comes from it alone, it cannot be denied
