سَرَقتَ شعري وَغَيري

يُضامُ فيهِ وَيُخدَع

You stole my poetry and others'

In which they are wronged and deceived

فَسَوفَ أَجزيكَ صَفعا

يَكدُّ رَأساً وَأَخدَع

So I will repay you with a slap

That will nearly split your head and cheek

فَسارِقُ المال يَقطع

وَسارِقُ الشِعر يُصفَع

For the thief of money is cut

While the thief of poetry is slapped
