1. أَوحى المَليكُ إِلى مَن في بَسيطَتِهِ

    مِنَ البَريَّةِ جَوَسوا الأَرضَ أَو حَوسَوا

    The Sovereign revealed to those upon his earth,

    among creatures: “Scour the earth, or roam it;

  2. فَأَنتُم قَومُ سوءٍ لا صَلاحَ لَكُم

    مَسعودُكُم عِندَ أَهلِ الأَرضِ مَنحوسُ

    for you are an evil people, with no goodness in you;

    your fortunate one is ill-starred in the eyes of the earth’s people.”
