ما شاهدانِ الى الشهادةِ أُلجئا

وَعليهما للزور أَلفا شاهدِ

These two witnesses were driven to testify,

Though a thousand bore false witness against them.

شَهدا بِما لم يَعلَما وعلى الَّذي

لَم يَعرِفاهُ على اختلاف مواردِ

They testified to what they did not know,

Against one unknown to them however it occurred.

مَعَ ذاك صُدِّقتِ الشهادةُ منهما

وَالناس ترفُضها بصوتٍ واحدِ

Yet their testimony was believed,

While people rejected it unanimously.

واذا الحقيقةُ قد بدت من بينها

مثل الصلاح اذا بدا من فاسدِ

When the truth appeared from within it,

Like purity appearing from corruption.
