مَنْ مَبِلغُ الأشرارِ عنَّي أنَّني

مادامَ بي طَرفٌ وعِرقٌ ينبِض

Who will inform the evildoers that as long as I have sight and a pulsing vein, I think little of them because I oppose them and opposites naturally hate each other. And when they see me approaching, let them know that I turn my face away from friendship with them.

أقليهُمُ طُرّاً لأنِّي ضِدُّهُمْ

والضِّدُّ للضِّدِّ المُنافِس يبغِضُ

وإذا رأوْني مُقبلاً فلْيعلَموا

أنِّي بوَجهِ الودِّ عنْهُم مُعرِض
