لِلظُّلمِ بَينَ الأَقرَبينَ مَضاضَةٌ

وَالدَلُّ ما بَينَ الأَباعِدِ أَروَحُ

Injustice among kin is painful

And nearness between those far is most desired

فَإِذا أَتَتكَ مِنَ الرِجالِ قَوارِضٌ

فَسِهامُ ذي القُربى القَريبَةِ أَجرَحُ

So when men send you biting words

Then arrows from a close relative cut deepest
