دُيونُكَ لا يُقضى الزَمانَ غَريمُها
وَبُخلُكَ بُخلُ الباهِليِّ سَعيدِ
Your debts are not repaid, time is their creditor
And your stinginess is the stinginess of the wretched Sa'id
سَعيدُ بنُ سَلمٍ أَلأَمُ الناسِ كُلِّهِم
وَما قَومُهُ مِن لُؤمِهِ بِبَعيدِ
Sa'id ibn Salam, most wretched of all people
And his people are not far from his vileness
يَزيدُ لَهُ فَضلٌ وَلَكِنَّ مَزيَداً
تَدارَكَ أَقصى مَجدِهِ بِيَزيدِ
Increase comes to him but then an increase
Cut short the height of his glory through Yazid
خُزَيمَةُ لا بَأسٌ بِهِ غَيرَ أَنَّهُ
لِمَطبَخِهِ قُفلٌ وَبابُ حَديدِ
Khuzaymah, no harm in him except that
For his kitchen there is a lock and door of iron
