Al-aasi yilʼazzab
1 Wa khalaas, Alifaaz al-min balad Teemaan chaal al-kalaam wa gaal :
2 Hal al-hakiim yurudd be ilim
al-jaayi min al-riih walla ?
Wa yanfukh batnah
be riih al-sabaah walla ?
3 Hu yidaafiʼ le nafsah be kalaam ma mufiid
wa be hije al-ma indah faayde.
4 Inta zaatak battalt makhaafat al-Rabb
wa tallaft al-ibaada giddaamah.
5 Achaan khataak lazza khachmak yikallim
wa inta hajjeet be lisaan al-najaada.
6 Wa khachmak bas sawwaak khaati, ma ana !
Wa lisaanak bas chahad foogak !
7 Inta awwal naadum wildook walla ?
Inta jiit fi l-dunya gabul al-jibaal walla ?
8 Hal simiʼt sirr al-Rabb walla ?
Hal chilt al-hikma leek inta wiheedak walla ?
9 Chunu al-inta taʼarfah
wa aniina ma naʼarfuuh ?
Chunu al-inta fihimtah
wa aniina ma fihimnaah ?
10 Fi usutna, fiyah naas
suufhum abyad wa chiyyaab
wa siniinhum ziyaada min siniin abuuk !
11 Sabbiriin al-Rabb chiyya leek walla ?
Wa hannisiinna chiyya leek walla ?
12 Maala galbak yiwaddirak
wa l-zaʼal yinchaaf fi uyuunak ?
13 Maala tiwajjih khadabak le l-Rabb
wa tamrug al-kalaam da min khachmak ?
14 Chunu Bani Adam,
lahaddi yuguul hu saafi ?
Hu al-wildatah mara,
lahaddi yuguul hu saalih ?
15 Al-Rabb ma yiʼaamin malaaʼikatah
wa l-samaawaat kula giddaamah ma saafiyiin.
16 Kan misil da, kikkeef al-insaan
al-yisawwi al-haraam wa l-rachwa
yabga saafi,
hu al-yichiif al-fasaala hayne leyah
misil charaab almi ?
17 Ana nikhabbirak, asmaʼni !
Wa l-ana chiftah, niʼooriik beyah.
18 Al-hakiimiin kallamo
wa ma labbado al-cheyy al-jaayi min juduudhum.
19 Leehum humman bas,
antaahum al-balad
wa abadan ajnabi ma dakhal
fi usuthum.
20 Daahu al-aasi yilʼazzab
fi kulla muddit hayaatah.
Aywa, siniin siid al-unuf
mahsuubiin.
21 Udneeyah yasmaʼo hiss mukhiif
wa fi wakt al-salaam bas,
al-mukharrib yaji leyah.
22 Al-aasi ma yisaddig kadar yamrug min al-dalaam,
wa l-seef gaaʼid yiraakhibah.
23 Hu yabga maʼaach le l-suguura
wa yaʼarif kharaabah muʼakkad fi yoom al-dalaam.
24 Al-diige wa l-taʼab yabhatooh wa yakhlubuuh
misil malik yakhlib udwaanah.
25 Achaan hu dagga sadrah le l-Rabb.
Aywa ! Gamma didd al-Gaadir.
26 Hu gawwa raasah wa jara aleyah,
be daragatah al-takhiine.
27 Achaan chuduugah waarmiin min al-chaham
wa sulbah bigi ariid wa samiin.
28 Hu sakan fi mudun al-mudammariin
aywa, fi buyuut al-kharbaaniin
al-gariib yabgo koom hana turaab.
29 Wa laakin hu ma yakhna
wa khunaayah ma yitawwil
wa maalah ma yiziid fi l-ard.
30 Hu ma yamrug min al-dalaam
wa ambalbaala tiyabbis bizirtah
wa riih al-Rabb tichiilah.
31 Khalli ma yiʼaamin be l-kidib,
hu al-yukhuchch nafsah,
achaan al-kidib yabga maahiiytah.
32 Wa da yilhaggag
gabul ma yikammulu ayyaamah.
Hu misil chadara al-firiʼha
abadan ma yikhaddir.
33 Wa hu misil chadarat inab
al-yidaffugu iyaalha khudur
wa misil chadarat zaytuun
al-nuwwaarha yidaffig.
34 Aywa, mujtamaʼ al-kuffaar
ma yijiibu iyaal
wa l-naar taakul khiyam
siyaad al-rachwa.
35 Al-yakhlab be l-taʼab yijiib al-charr
wa yalda al-khachch.
