I once had a close friend who, along
I once had a friend
the path of hypocrisy, had indeed walked.
Who walked the path of hypocrisy

فقطعته من حيث رك
The garments of his affection wore thin,
I sewed him clothes of affection
so I cut him off where his affection had worn thin.
Yet he cut me off without looking back
