زاحمت كل أخي جهل وزاحمني
كالبدر غالب فيما حاول الظلما
I vied with every brother of ignorance, and he vied with me—
while I, like the full moon, prevailed in all that the learned attempted.
ولاح لي من زماني مظهر كذب
حتى رميت على عُبَّاده الصنما
And from my age there appeared to me a manifestation of falsehood,
until I hurled the idol down upon its worshippers.
