لِأَنَّ أَبي خِلافَتُهُ شَديدٌ

وَأَنَّ أَباكَ مِثلُكَ ما عَداكَ

Because my father's leadership is harsh

And your father is like you, none can match

أَبوكَ مُذَمَّمٌ وَخُلِقتَ مِنهُ

عَلى قَدَرٍ كَما قُدَّ الشِراكَ

Your father is flawed and you are born of him

To an extent, as a peg matches a latch

لِسانُكَ مُفحَمٌ وَنَداكَ دونٌ

وَإِنَّ هَجاكَ لا يَعدو قَفاكَ

Your tongue is blunt, your voice is faint

And your satire goes no further than your nape

يَقولُ القَولَ تَحسَبُهُ صَواباً

وَعَقلُكَ عَقلُ مومِسَةٍ تَناكَ

You speak words thinking them right

Yet your mind is that of a whore being mounted
