ما السودُ كالبيضِ وَصْلُ السودِ مَنْقَصةٌ

فعدْ عنهنَّ واذكرْ خجلةَ الحَبَلِ

Blacks are not like whites, and association with blacks is harmful,

So abandon them and remember the shame of pregnancy outside marriage,

وارجعْ إلى الحقِّ والطبعِ السليمِ تجدْ

في طلعةِ الشمسِ ما يغنيكَ عَنْ زُحَلِ

And return to truth and good nature, you will find

In the rising sun what will suffice you instead of Saturn.
