Abul Atahiya - False Friends

It is not the age that moves my scorn
But those who in the age are born
I cannot count the friends that broke
Their faith, the honied words they sopke
In whom no aid I found, and made
The devil welcome to their aid.
May I so best we shall agree
never look on them nor they on me .

Abul Atahiya
