عَضَضتَ بِأَيرٍ مِن أَبيكَ وَخالِهِ

وَعَضَّت بَنو النَجّارِ بِالسُكَّرِ الرَطبِ

You bit a penis from your father and his maternal uncle,

while Banū al-Najjār bit into moist sugar.

فَلَستَ بِخَيرٍ مِن أَبيكَ وَخالِهِ

وَلَستَ بِخَيرٍ مِن مُعاظَلَةِ الكَلبِ

You are no better than your father and his maternal uncle,

nor better than dogs locked together in mating.

وَلَستَ بِذي دينٍ وَلا ذي أَمانَةٍ

وَلَستَ بِحُرٍّ مِن لُؤَيٍّ وَلا كَعبِ

You are neither a man of religion nor a man of trustworthiness,

nor a freeborn man descended from Luʾayy or Kaʿb.

وَلَكِن هَجينٌ ذو دَناةٍ لِمُقرِفٍ

مُجاجَةَ مِلحٍ غَيرِ صافٍ وَلا عَذبِ

But you are base-born, a man of baseness and ignoble stock—

a gob of brine, neither clear nor sweet.
