I heard of three people for whom gossip is permissible

And for the fourth, it is a mistake to pass over

One is the king who welcomes reproach

From whom you see harm come to the hearts of the people

It is permissible to spread news about him

Unless the people are cautious of him

The second is the one whose shamelessness is revealed

Who tears the veil over his own self

Do not look at his pool, O brother

For he will fall into the well with his own neck

The third is the one with an unjust scale

Whose bad deeds, tell whatever you know about
