قيلَ لي إِنَّ مدلويه بنَ بَدرٍ

قَتَلوهُ بِالصَفعِ أَشنَعَ قَتلِ

I was told that they killed Madlūyih, son of Badr

By stoning, a terrible murder

قُلتُ عَظَّمتُمُ القَضِيَّةَ في دَلـ

ـوٍ خَليعٍ قَد رَقَّعوهُ بِنَعلِ

I said: you made a big deal of a worthless

Delū, whom they stoned with a sandal
