غضبتْ لي السماءُ والأرضُ والنا

سُ على ابن اللَّبُونِ إسماعيلِ

The sky, earth, and people were angry with

The son of Laboon, Ismail

ولما أسْخَطَ السماءَ مع الأر

ضِ مع الناسِ غيرُ سُخْطِ الجليل

And when the sky was enraged with

The earth and people, apart from the Majestic

أنكر اللَّهُ أن يُرى مثلُ مدحي

في أبي الفقْرِ وهْو غيرُ مُنيل

God denied that praise like mine

Would be seen for the father of destitution while he is unattainable

فرماهُ بكوكبٍ هاشميٍّ

كان أدْهى له من السِّجِّيل

So He struck him with a Hashimite star

That was more painful for him than flaming rods

ولقد كادَ ما استطاعَ ولكنْ

جُعل الكيدُ منهُ في تضليل

And he nearly accomplished what he could, but

The scheme against him was made to fail

سال ذاك النجيعُ من ذلك العب

د ودمْعُ الباكيهِ كلَّ مسيل

That wretched man wept from that

And the tears of the mourners flowed like springs

ولْيُطِلْ مُعْوِلٌ عليه عَوِيلاً

إنه في لظًى طويل العويل

Let the wailing swoop down on him with prolonged

Wailing, for he is in intense, long-lasting agony

لا سقى اللَّهُ جسمَهُ من حيا المُز

نِ ولا رُوحَه من السلسبيل

May God not quench his body with the water of life

Nor his soul with the water of Paradise
