1. أَصابَت عَلَينا جودَك العينُ يا عُمَر

    فَنَحنُ لَها نَبغي التَّمائِمَ وَالنُّشَر

    The evil eye has struck your generosity toward us, O Umar.

    So we seek amulets and healing charms against it.

  2. أَصابَتك عَينٌ في سَماحِك صُلبَةٌ

    وَيا ربَّ عَينٍ صُلبَةٍ تفلقُ الحَجَر

    A powerful evil eye has struck you in your generosity,

    And oh, many a powerful eye splits stone.

  3. سَنُرقيك بِالأَشعارِ حَتّى تَمِلَّها

    فَاِن لَم تُفِق يَوماً رَقيناكَ بِالسُّوَر

    We shall recite poems over you as healing charms until you tire of them.

    And if one day you have not recovered, we shall recite Qur'anic chapters over you.
