سيدي شكرك عندي

مثل شكري لإلهي

My master, my gratitude to you

Is like my gratitude to my God

سيدي سخفي الذي قد

صار يأتي بالدواهي

My master, my foolishness that

Leads me to vice

أنت تدري أنه يد

فع عن مالي وجاهي

You know it is from lack of wealth and status

If only your enemies were with me

ليت من عاداك عندي

وهو ساهي الذقن لاهي

With his graying beard hanging down

You'd see his beard on his cheek as it is

فترى لحيته في است

ي إلى الصدغ كما هي
