1. O son of Harb, you have prolonged my poverty through my mending

    a cloak I had no need of.

  2. For in its mending it is like Pharaoh’s household being exposed

    to the Fire, morning and evening.

  3. Wearing it, I visited groups of people, and they scorned me.

    So I sang when they saw me looking wretched:

  4. “I came in a beggar’s garb to see you,

    and at the door I have stood a long while.”

Sol 6.1
