قدرتَ فَلَم تَضرُر عَدُوّاً بِقدرة

قدرتَ فَلَم تَضرُر عَدُوّاً بِقدرة

وَسُمتَ بِه إِخوانَك الذُلَّ وَالرَغما

وَسُمتَ بِه إِخوانَك الذُلَّ وَالرَغما

You had power, yet with that power you harmed no enemy.

You were able, yet you did not harm an enemy with your ability,

And with it you inflicted humiliation and abasement on your brothers.

And you gave your brethren only humility and vexation.

وَكُنتَ مَليئاً بِالَّذي قَد يعافها

وَكُنتَ مَليئاً بِالَّذي قَد يعافها

مِنَ الناسِ مَن يأتي الدَّنيئَةَ وَالذَمّا

مِنَ الناسِ مَن يأتي الدَّنيئَةَ وَالذَمّا

And you were capable of what might be shunned

You were full of that which some of the people might condemn -

even by those among people who commit base and blameworthy deeds.

Those who commit the vile and blameworthy acts.
