1. وَلَيسَ بِعَدلٍ إِن سَبَبتُ مُقاعِساً

    بِئابائِيَ الشُمِّ الكِرامِ الخَضارِمِ

    It is not justice if I revile seats

    By my noble fathers, Pure and honored ancestors,

  2. وَلَكِنَّ عَدلاً لَو سَبَبتُ وَسَبَّني

    بَنو عَبدِ شَمسٍ مِن مَنافٍ وَهاشِمِ

    But it would be just if I revile and they revile me,

    The clan of Abd Shams, of Manaf and Hashim.
