1. شَهِدتُ بِأَنّي عَبدُ مَغناكُمُ الَّذي

    عَلى بابِكُم أَرضى حِجابَكُمُ عَنّي

    I have borne witness that I am the servant of your abode, who

    at your door is content with your remaining veiled from me.

  2. فَإِن شَنَّعَ الأَعداءُ عَنّي بِضِدِّهِ

    فَلا تَشهَدوا إِلّا بِمَسموعِكُم مِنّي

    So if enemies slander me with claims to the contrary,

    then testify only to what you have heard from me.
