لِأَنَّ أَبي خِلافَتُهُ شَديدٌ

لِأَنَّ أَبي خِلافَتُهُ شَديدٌ

وَأَنَّ أَباكَ مِثلُكَ ما عَداكَ

وَأَنَّ أَباكَ مِثلُكَ ما عَداكَ

For my father is hard to oppose,

Because my father's leadership is harsh

And your father is like you, no better than you.

And your father is like you, none can match

أَبوكَ مُذَمَّمٌ وَخُلِقتَ مِنهُ

أَبوكَ مُذَمَّمٌ وَخُلِقتَ مِنهُ

عَلى قَدَرٍ كَما قُدَّ الشِراكَ

عَلى قَدَرٍ كَما قُدَّ الشِراكَ

Your father is reviled, and you were fashioned from him,

Your father is flawed and you are born of him

To measure, as the sandal strap was cut.

To an extent, as a peg matches a latch

لِسانُكَ مُفحَمٌ وَنَداكَ دونٌ

لِسانُكَ مُفحَمٌ وَنَداكَ دونٌ

وَإِنَّ هَجاكَ لا يَعدو قَفاكَ

وَإِنَّ هَجاكَ لا يَعدو قَفاكَ

Your tongue is silenced, and your generosity is paltry,

Your tongue is blunt, your voice is faint

And indeed your satire goes no farther than your nape.

And your satire goes no further than your nape

يَقولُ القَولَ تَحسَبُهُ صَواباً

يَقولُ القَولَ تَحسَبُهُ صَواباً

وَعَقلُكَ عَقلُ مومِسَةٍ تَناكَ

وَعَقلُكَ عَقلُ مومِسَةٍ تَناكَ

He speaks words you think are right,

You speak words thinking them right

And your mind is the mind of a prostitute who is fucked.

Yet your mind is that of a whore being mounted
