يَقولُ ذَوُو الحُكومَةِ مِن قُرَيشٍ

يَقولُ ذَوُو الحُكومَةِ مِن قُرَيشٍ

أَتَفخَرُ بَعدَ جارِكُمُ المُصابُ

أَتَفخَرُ بَعدَ جارِكُمُ المُصابُ

The arbiters among Quraysh say:

The rulers from Quraysh say,

Do you boast after your neighbor's misfortune?

Do you still boast, although your neighbor is struck with calamity?

غَدَرتَ وَما وَفَيتَ وَفاءَ حَزنٍ

غَدَرتَ وَما وَفَيتَ وَفاءَ حَزنٍ

فَأَورَثتَ الوَفاءَ بَني جَنابِ

فَأَورَثتَ الوَفاءَ بَني جَنابِ

You acted treacherously and did not keep faith as Hazn did;

You betrayed, and did not fulfill the loyalty of sorrow,

so you bequeathed loyalty to the sons of Janab.

So you made loyalty the inheritance of generous sons.
