1. لا هطل الغيثُ بدار الأُلى

    ليس بهمْ راضٍ ولا قانعُ

    May no rain fall on the dwelling of those

    with whom none is pleased or content.

  2. الشّرُّ في أبياتهمْ لابثٌ

    والخير فيما بينهمْ ضائعُ

    Evil dwells in their homes,

    and goodness is lost among them.

  3. مَن يشتري منِّي جِواري لهمْ

    فإنّني اليومَ له بائعُ

    Who will buy from me my place as their neighbor?

    For today I offer it for sale.
