1. وَاللَهِ يا اِبنَ الأَعمَشِ المُبتَلى

    في دُبرِهِ بِالخَبَثِ المَحضِ

    By God, O son of al-Aʿmash, afflicted

    in his anus with sheer depravity:

  2. لَو يَقدِرُ المِسكينُ مِمّا بِهِ

    لَاِستَدخَلَ الفيشَةَ بِالعَرضِ

    if the poor wretch could, given what ails him,

    he would insert the head of a penis into himself sideways.

  3. أَنتَ الَّذي يَملِكُ أَضعافَ ما

    حَواهُ قارونُ مِنَ البُغضِ

    You are the one who possesses many times what

    Qarun amassed—but yours is hatred.

  4. لَتَعلَمَن أَنَّ الرَدى كُلَّهُ

    حَتمٌ عَلى الراتِعِ في عِرضي

    You shall surely learn that utter doom

    is inevitable for whoever grazes on my honor.

  5. لَو فَرَّ شَيءٌ قَطُّ مِن شَكلِهِ

    فَرَّ إِذَن بَعضُكَ مِن بَعضِ

    If anything had ever fled from its own kind,

    then one part of you would have fled another.

  6. كَونُكَ في صُلبِ أَبينا آدَمٍ

    أَهبَطَنا جَمعاً إِلى الأَرضِ

    Your presence in the loins of our father Adam

    brought us all down to earth.
