ما إِن دَرى ذاكَ الذَميمُ وَقَد شَكا

مِن نَيلِ مُمتَدِحٍ وَرَمحِ جَوادِ

That worthless one does not know, though he complains

Of attaining a praiser's favor or a steed's spear,

هَل يَشتَكي وَجَعاً بِهِ في سُرَّةٍ

بِالسينِ أَم في صُرَّةٍ بِالصادِ

Whether he feels a pain inside his ribs

With a "seen" or inside his nape with a "sad."
