لَعَمرُ بَني بُجَيرٍ حَيثُ صاروا

وَمَن آذاهُمُ يَومَ الثَنِيِّ

By the life of Bani Bujayr wherever they went

And whoever harmed them on the day of rebellion

لَقَد لاقَت مَسَرّاتُهُمُ إِفتِضاحاً

وَفِئنا بِالنِساءِ عَلى المَطِيِّ

Their women’s apartments have certainly met disgrace

And tribulation with women on the horse

أَلا يا لِلرِجالِ فَإِنَّ جَهلاً

بِكُم أَن تَفعَلوا فِعلَ الصَبِيِّ

Alas, O men! For ignorance in you

Is to act like a foolish boy
