الْمَقَامَةُ الدِّينَارِيَّةُ

Al-Harith bin Hammam said:

Harisu ọmọ Hammam sọ pé:

My heart whispered to me that he was Abu Zayd,

Ọkàn mi sọ fún mi pé Abu Seidu ni,

And that his limping was a trick.

Àti pé ìtẹ̀sẹ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ ẹ̀tàn.

So I called him back and said to him:

Nítorí náà mo pè é padà mo sì sọ fún un pé:

You've been recognized by your embroidery.

A ti mọ̀ ọ́ nípa aṣọ rẹ tó ní ìṣẹ́ ọnà.

So walk straight.

Nítorí náà, rìn déédé.

He said: If you are Ibn Hammam,

Ó sọ pé: Tí o bá jẹ́ ọmọ Hammam,

May you be greeted with honor,

Kí a kí ọ pẹ̀lú ọlá,

And may you be greeted among the honorable!

Kí a sì kí ọ láàrin àwọn ọlọ́lá!

I said: I am Al-Harith.

Mo sọ pé: Èmi ni Harisu.
