1. مَدَحتُهُمُ دَهراً فلْم أرَ مِنهُمُ

    جزاءً منَ الأموال كُثْراً ولا قُلاّ

    I praised them for ages, yet never received from them

    any reward in money, much or little.

  2. فيا سَيِّدَ المفتِينَ هلْ في عُلومِكُمْ

    عَلَيَّ جُناحٌ إنْ هَجوْتُكُمْ أمْ لا

    So, master of muftis, according to your learning, is there

    any sin upon me if I satirize you, or not?
