رَأَيتُ أَبا الحَجناءِ في الناسِ جائِزاً

وَلَونُ أَبي الحَجناءِ لَونُ ا لبَهائِمِ

I saw Abu Al-Hajna among the people passing by

And the complexion of Abu Al-Hajna is the complexion of beasts

تَراهُ عَلى ما لاحَهُ مِن سَوادِهِ

وَإِن كانَ مَظلوماً لَهُ وَجهُ ظالِمِ

You see it because of its intense blackness

And if it has been wronged, still its face is that of a wrongdoer
