سارَ بي للأمِيرِ يشْكو اعْتِراضي

يوسُفٌ والشّهودُ أبْناءُ جِنْسِهْ

He went to complain about me to the prince,

Joseph and the witnesses are his own people.

قالَ لي ما تَقولُ قُلْتُ مُجيباً

لمْ نَخَفْ منْ نكالِهِ أوْ لحَبْسِهْ

He said to me, "What do you say?" I replied,

"We do not fear his punishment or imprisonment."

حصْحَصَ الحقُّ يا خَوَنْدُ فدَعْني

أنا راوَدْتُ يوسفاً عنْ نفسِهِ

The truth has emerged, O betrayer, so leave me be!

I am the one who tried to seduce Joseph against his will.
