1. سُقينا بِفَضلِ اللَهِ وَالأَرضُ مَنزِلٌ

    يَحُلُّ بِهِ مَن لَيسَ أَهلاً لِأَن يُسقى

    We were watered by God's grace, and the earth is a dwelling

    where those unworthy of being watered reside.

  2. وَما طَهَّرَت بِالعُشرِ خَمسَةَ أَوسُقٍ

    نُفوسٌ أَقَلَّت مِن مَآثِمِها وِسقا

    Nor have five wasqs of grain been purified through the tithe

    by souls that have borne a load of their sins.

  3. وَفي كُلِّ أَرضٍ أُمَّةٌ جَعَلوا التُقى

    هِيَ الشيمَةُ الشَنعاءُ وَاِستَحسَنوا الفِسقا

    And in every land is a community that has deemed piety

    a loathsome trait, and found wickedness good.
