الْمَقَامَةُ السنجارية

My excuse for my deed has become clear.

Awawi mi fún iṣẹ́ mi ti di mímọ́.

And I will mend my rift with my old and new.

Ati pe dájúdájú mo máa tún àbùkù mi ṣe pẹ̀lú àwọn àtijọ́ àti tuntun mi.

For what I have provided you with humor is sweeter than sweets to every knower.

Nítorí ohun tí mo ti fún yín pẹ̀lú ìtẹ̀ríba jẹ́ dídùn ju àkàrà lọ fún gbogbo ẹni tí ó mọ̀.

Al-Harith ibn Hammam said: So we accepted his apology.

Al-Harith ibn Hammam sọ pé: Nítorí náà, a gba ìdáríjì rẹ̀.

And we kissed his cheek's hair.

Asi fi ẹnu kò irun parikẹ rẹ̀.

And we said to him: Indeed, slander has harmed the best of people.

A sọ fún un pé: Ní tòótọ́, ofoofo ti ko bá àwọn ènìyàn tó dára jù.

Until what spread from the carrier of firewood spread.

Títí tí ohun tí ó tàn kúrò lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí ó gbé igi iná tàn.

Then we asked him about what his slanderous neighbor had done.

Lẹ́yìn náà, a bi í léèrè nípa ohun tí onibajẹ aládùúgbò rẹ̀ ti ṣe.

And his intrusive entry.

Ati ìwọlé rẹ̀ tí ó ń da nkan rú.

After he had feathered the arrows of slander for him.

Lẹ́yìn tí ó ti fi iyẹ sí àwọn ọ̀fà èébú fún un.
