كُلُّ ذي أُبنَةٍ لَهُ واحِدٌ يَعـ
ـلوهُ في حالِ نَيلِهِ إِيّاهُ
Every man of status has one who raises him when he attains it
And he has five mighty slaves who resemble him
وَلَهُ مِن عَبيدِهِ خَمسَةٌ سو
دٌ كِبارٌ أُيودُهُم أَشباهُ
One above him and another who fills his regulated Ptolemaic mouth
And his hands are at the origin of his boys' hands for pleasure
واحِدٌ فَوقَهُ وَآخَرُ يَحشو
بَطلَيموسِهِ المُقَوَّمِ فاهُ
And another at his nape
وَيَداهُ في أَصلِ أَيدَي غُلامَيـ
ــهِ التِذاذاً وَآخَرٌ لِقَفاهُ
