Fi l-nihaaya, al-Rabb yibarri Ayyuub
1 Wa Ayyuub chaal al-kalaam wa gaal :
2 Al-yoom, ana muʼaarid le l-Rabb
wa nitaabiʼ fi chakwiti.
Wa iidi tagiile foogi
wa laakin ma tagdar tiwaggif ganiiti.
3 Yaareet ! Kan naʼarif bakaan nalgaah
wa kan nagdar nawsal fi bakaan maskanah,
4 khalaas nagdar niwassif leyah kadar ana bari
wa namla khachmi be l-hujaj.
5 Wa be da, naʼarif al-kalaam
al-yuruddah leyi
wa nagdar nafham al-yuguulah.
6 Hal yihaakimni be kulla gudurtah walla ?
La ! Yasmaʼni.
7 Wa hu yaʼarif
kadar ana khasiimah, saalih.
Wa hu al-yichaariʼni,
fi l-nihaaya yibarriini.
8 Wa laakin kan ana macheet
ale l-sabaah, hu ma fiih
wa fi l-kharib, ana ma nichiifah.
9 Kan hu machkhuul fi l-munchaakh,
ma nichiifah
wa wakit hu yinlafit wati,
ma nichiifah.
Ayyuub khaaf giddaam al-Rabb
10 Wa laakin le derbi ana,
hu yaʼarfah.
Wa kan kachafni,
yalgaani saafi misil al-dahab.
11 Rijli titaabiʼ khatwaatah
wa ana hafadt derbah, ma talagtah.
12 Ana ma khalleet wasiiyaatah
wa hafadt gawaaniinah ziyaada
min al-akil al-fi khachmi.
13 Wa kan hu bas kharrar,
yaatu yagdar yifachchilah ?
Aywa, al-hu yidoorah, yihaggigah.
14 Hu yinaffiz al-hu kharrarah leyi
misil kharaaraatah al-aakhariin kula.
15 Fi chaan da giddaamah hu, ana ninbahit
wa kan fakkart foogah, narjif.
16 Al-Rabb, hu al-waddar chajaaʼti
wa l-Gaadir malaani be l-ruʼub.
17 Wa da, ma dalaam al-sakkatni
wa la sawaad al-khattaani.
