نَسَبْتَ لِيَ الْمَسَاويَّ اعْتِسَافَا

وَغَطَّيْتَ الْمَحاسِنَ بِالذُّنُوبِ

You attributed sins to me as a confession,

And covered up virtues with faults.

أَعَلاَّمَ الْعُيُوبِ جَزَاكَ عَنِّي

بِمَا أَسْلَفْتَ عَلاَّمُ الْغُيُوبِ

Is making my flaws known your reward for me

For what I did in secret, Knower of secrets?
