طافَ الخَيالُ وَحَيِّهِ بِسلامِ

أَنّي أَلَمَّ وَلَيسَ حينَ لِمامِ

The imagination wandered with its visions in peace

Though I suffered, it was not yet time for blame

يا اِبنَ الَّذي وَرِث النّبِيَّ مُحَمَّداً

دونَ الأَقارِبِ مِن ذَوي الأَرحامِ

O son of him who inherited the Prophet Muhammad

Above all relatives from maternal uncles

أَلوَحيُ بِينَ بَني البَناتِ وَبَينَكُم

قَطَعَ الخِصامَ فَلاتَ حينَ خِصامِ

The revelation arbitrated between the daughters and you

It ended the dispute, so do not dispute

ما لِلنِّساءِ مَعَ الرِجالِ فَريضَةٌ

نَزَلَت بِذلِكِ سورَةُ الأَنعامِ

Women have no obligation towards men

A verse in Surat Al-An'am descended about that

أَنّي يَكونُ وَلَيسَ ذاكَ بِكائِنٍ

لِبَني البَناتِ وِراثَةُ الأَعمامِ

It will not happen, though it is not happening

That paternal uncles inherit daughters

أَلغى سِهامَهُمُ الكِتابُ فَحاوَلوا

أَن يَشرَعوا فيها بِغَيرِ سِهامِ

The Book nullified their shares, but they tried

To legitimize it without shares

ظَفِرَت بَنو ساقي الحَجيجِ بِحَقِّهِم

وَغُرِرتُمُ بِتَوَهُّمِ الأَحلامِ

The clan of Saaqiy al-Hajj won their right

While you were deluded by fanciful dreams

خَلّوا الطَريقَ لِمَعشَرٍ عاداتُهُم

حَطمُ المَناكِبِ كُلَّ يَومِ زِحامِ

Make way for a group whose traits

Are breaking shoulders every crowded day

وَاِرضَوا بِما قَسَمَ الإِلهُ لَكُم بِهِ

وَدَعوا وِراثَةَ كُلِّ أَصيَدَ حامِ

Be content with what God allotted you

And leave the inheritance of every game bird cooked by Ham
