هي قذ وتوأم ورقيب

ثم حلس ونافس ثم مسبل

She is a necklace and a twin and a companion

Then settled and competed then flowed

والمعلى والوغد ثم سفيح

ومنيح وذي الثلاثة تهمل

And the exalted and the scoundrel then obscene

And fine and the one with three accusations is neglected

ولكل مما عداها نصيب

مثله ان تعد أول أوّل

And for each of what is beyond it there is a share

The like of it, if you count the very first
