يريد خيانتي وهب وأرجو

من اللَه البراءة والأَمانا

He wants to betray me, and Wahb seeks

From Allah, vindication and safety.

فَإِنَّ اللَهَ يَعلَمُني وَوهباً

وَيَعلَمُ أَن سَنَلقاهُ كِلانا

Indeed, Allah knows me and Wahb,

And knows we will both meet Him.

وَأَنَّ بَني رَبيعَةَ بَعدَ وَهبٍ

كَراعي البَيتِ يَحفَظُهُ فَخانا

And Banu Rabi'ah after Wahb,

Like caretakers of the house, will guard it if he betrays.

وَلَكِنَّ الدُحولَ إِذا أَتاها

عجافُ المالِ تَترُكُهُ سِمانا

But the cattle, when visited by

Dry years, leave it thin.
