جعْسوسُ زيَّنَ خطّةَ الحُكْمِ التي
شهِدَ العَفافُ لهُ بِها والخِيْرُ
Jaʿsūs adorned the office of judgment, which
chastity and goodness attested was his.
فصَلَ الخصومَ وقامَ يرْكَبُ نائِماً
عنْها ومدّ جَناحَهُ الطّاشورُ
He settled the litigants, then rose to ride, asleep
to it; and al-Ṭāshūr spread his wing.
وكأنّهُ جُعَلٌ يُدَحْرِجُ جاهِداً
كُرةَ الخَراءِ وبعْدَ ذاكَ يَطيرُ
He seemed a dung beetle, laboriously rolling
a ball of excrement, and after that he flies.
