حَيّوا حَليلَةَ بَعلِها سَلّامَه

وَعَلى الخَليلِ مِنَ الخَليلِ ذَمامَه

Greet the wife of her husband, send her greetings

And blame the friend for betraying his friend

بَيضاءُ كَالوَرِقِ اللُجَينِ يَزينُها

وَجهٌ عَلَيهِ نَضرَةٌ وَقَسامَه

White as the soft paper that adorns her

A face on which there is freshness and perfection

تِلكَ الَّتي أَصفَيتُها بِنَصيحَتي

هَل بَعدَ إِجهادِ الخَليلِ مَلامَه

She is the one I chose with my advice

Is there any blame after the friend's exhaustion?

وَعَدَتكَ بِالبَيتِ المُبارَكِ أَهلُهُ

هَيهاتَ مَسكِنُ مَن تَحُلُّ تِهامَه

Its people promised you the blessed house

Alas, it is not the dwelling of one on whom suspicion falls
