عَصَى أَبُو العالَمِ وَهْو الَّذي

من طِينَةٍ صَوَّرَهُ اللهُ

The father of humankind disobeyed—he who

was fashioned by God from clay,

وأَسْجَدَ الأَمْلاكَ مِنْ أَجْلِهِ

وكانَ في الجَنَّةِ مَأْواهُ

for whose sake He made the angels bow down,

and whose abode was in Paradise.

أَغْواهُ إبْليسٌ فَمَنْ ذا أَنَا ال

مِسْكينُ إنْ إِبْليسُ أَغْواهُ

Iblis led him astray—then who am I, the

poor wretch, if Iblis led him astray?
