1. أَرى إِلارجافَ مُتصلاً بِندلٍ

    وَلابسَ حُلَّتَي كِبرٍ وَتيهِ

    I see rumor-mongering bound to a scoundrel,

    And wearing the twin robes of pride and conceit.

  2. وَإِرجافُ العوامِ مقدَّماتٍ

    لِأَمرٍ كائِنٍ لا شَكَّ فيهِ

    And the common people's rumors are harbingers

    Of something to come—there is no doubt of it.
