نَبَذتُمُ الأَديانَ مِن خَلفِكُم

وَلَيسَ في الحِكَمةِ أَن تُنبَذا

You have forsaken religions behind you

And it is not wisdom to forsake them

لا قاضِيَ المِصرِ أَطَعتُم وَلا

الحَبرَ وَلا القَسُّ وَلا الموبَذا

You obeyed not the Judge of Egypt, nor

The Priest, the Monk, the Hermit revered

إِن عُرِضَت مِلَّتُكُم بَينَهُم

قالَ جَميعُ القَومِ لا حَبَّذا

If your religion were presented to them

All would cry: nothing better than this!
