فَكَفَّ يَدَيهِ ثُمَّ أَغلَقَ بابَهُ

وَأَيقَنَ أَنَّ اللَهَ لَيسَ بِغافِلِ

He folded his arms and closed his door

And knew that God is never unaware

وَقالَ لِأَهلِ الدارِ لا تَقتُلوهُمُ

عَفا اللَهُ عَن ذَنبِ اِمرِئٍ لَم يُقاتِلِ

He told his household “Do not kill them now”

May God forgive one who did not start a fight

فَكَيفَ رَأَيتَ اللَهَ أَلقى عَلَيهُمُ ال

عَداوَةَ وَالبَغضاءَ بَعدَ التَواصُلِ

How could you see that God has cast on them

Enmity and hatred after their embrace

وَكَيفَ رَأَيتَ الخَيرَ أَدبَرَ بَعدَهُ

عَلى الناسِ إِدبارَ السَحابِ الحَوافِلِ

How could you see that good has turned away

Leaving people like heavy rains that leave
