1. دخلت على الرسول وكان غثا

    ثقيل الروح ذا حمق وجهل

    I went in to see the messenger, and he was insipid,

    A tiresome soul, full of folly and ignorance.

  2. وأقسم أنه لو كان أيراً

    لكان على أبي نصر بن سهل

    And I swear that, if he were a penis,

    He would be on Abu Nasr ibn Sahl.
