لم يبكِ مَخلوقٌ لمقتلِ أَحمدٍ

لا غَروَ منهُ فذاكَ أَحمدُ مَقْتَلِ

No creature wept at Ahmed's death

Except the one who killed Ahmed, that was his death

أظهرتُ بعدَ مماتِهِ مَقْتي لَهُ

إذْ كانَ يُضمرُ في الحياةِ المقْتَ لي

After he died I showed my hatred for him

Since while alive he had hidden his intent to kill me
