قالوا هجاك أبو حفص فقلت لهم

بذاك أمكنني من قَفْدِ يافُوخِهْ

They said Abu Hafs derided you, so I said to them,

By that he enabled me to reside in his spacious abode.

أقطعتُ عرضي أبا حفص وأقطعني

أن أنزِل الدهْرَ أنَّى شئتُ في كُوخِهْ

I offered my honor to Abu Hafs and he offered me

To spend my life however I wish in his dwelling.
