  1. أَبا الحَشفانِ آتيكَ

    وَإِن جَدَّ بِكَ الأَمرُ

    O Abu Hashfan, I come to you

    Though the matter is dire with you

  2. سَيلقَى دُبرَكَ الصَلتُ

    وَيَلقى قُبلَكَ الصَقرُ

    Your back will meet reconciliation

    And the falcon will meet your front

  3. عَلَيهِ الدُرُّ وَالياقو

    تُ قَد فَصَّلَهُ الشَذرُ

    On him are pearls and coat of mail

    That shattered him, the admirable one

  4. إِذا جاراكَ لوطِيٌّ

    فَأَنتَ المُسهِبُ الكُبرُ

    If a despicable one insults you

    Then you are the greatest forgiver

  5. لَقَد شاعَ لِحَمّادٍ

    بِداءٍ في اِستِهِ ذِكرُ

    Indeed it spread for Hammad

    With a sickness in his infatuation a mention

  6. أَما يَنهاكَ يا حَمّا

    دُ ذِكرُ المَوتِ وَالقَبرُ

    Does not the mention of death and grave forbid you, O Hammad

    No but what you see of gathering

  7. أَلا بَل ما تَرى حَشراً

    وَما الزِنديقُ وَالحَشرُ

    And what is the heretic and Gathering

    Do I, in you, seek the good

  8. أَعِندي تَطلُبُ النَيكَ

    وَنَيكُ الرَجُلِ النُكرُ

    And good in a man is chivalry

    Neither has your front split

  9. وَما قُبلُكَ مَشقوقٌ

    وَلا في اِستِكَ لي أَجرُ

    Nor in your possession for me a reward

    So leave me and acquire patience

  10. فَدَعني وَاِكتَسِب صَبراً

    فَنِعمَ الشيمَةُ الصَبرُ

    For excellent is the quality, patience

    Otherwise, swallow embers

  11. وَإِلّا فَاِحشُها جَمراً

    سَيَشفي ما بِكَ الجَمرُ

    It will heal what is in you, the embers

    Truly, ignorance missed you

  12. فَقَد أَخطَأَكَ الجَديُ

    فَكُل خُصيَيكَ يا وَبرُ

    So eat your testicles, O cuckold

    You hoped for wine in my house

  13. رَجَوتَ الخَمرَ في بَيتي

    وَما تَعرِفُني الخَمرُ

    Yet you do not know me, O wine
