1. يا أيها الجائر في سيرِهِ

    قصْداً فقصدُ السير من خيرِهِ

    O you who are unjust in your conduct

    Intentionally, so the conduct is far from good

  2. لعمرُ من عَرّض لي عِرْضهُ

    ما زَجر الميمونُ من طيرِهِ

    By the life of one who has offered me his companionship

    The auspicious bird is not deterred from its flock

  3. بنتُك يا خالد فيما يُرى

    هي ابنة الشوكي لا غيرِهِ

    Your daughter, O Khaled, as it appears

    Is the daughter of Ash-Shawki, no one else

  4. فإن يكن بينكما شركة

    فإنها لا شك من أيرِهِ

    If there is partnership between you

    Then no doubt she is from her father
