1. فَوَاللَهِ ما فَرَّقتُ ما جُدتَ لي بِهِ

    عَلى الصَحبِ عَن تيهٍ عَرانِيَ أَو كِبرِ

    So, by God, I did not distribute what you generously gave me

    among my companions out of conceit that overtook me, or pride.

  2. وَلَكِنَّني لَمّا عَلِمتُ بِأَنَّني

    أُقَصِّرُ عَن أَداءِ حَقِّكَ بِالشُكرِ

    But when I realized that I

    fall short of fulfilling your due through thanks,

  3. شَرِكتُ جَميعَ الصَحبِ فيها لَعَلَّها

    تُساعِدُ في شُكرٍ يَقومُ بِهِ عُذري

    I shared it with all my companions, hoping they

    would help offer thanks through which my excuse might be upheld.
