    His grandfather a thief of she-goats, one of the immoral ones,

  4. إنّ سَوّاراً لأعْمى

    من ذوي جَهْرٍ جُناةِ

    He insults the Messenger of Allah, and charges him with abhorrent things,

    He who used to call out from behind the apartments,

  6. جَدُّهُ سارقُ عنزٍ

    فجرةً من فَجَراتِ

    So we insulted him, and whoever we insult is pelted with spitting,

    So forbid him, may Allah not forbid him the evils of the night visitors.
