Om! tawar! Sakalian ku-tawar ! 
Yahu Sulaiman innahu, ‘ Bis ni lah’ ! 
Ho I borrow the words of the Koran 
To turn earth and heaven upside down! 
Genies and devils return to your kind! 
Evil wrought by mortals return to them! 
Genies of supernatural power ! 
Your home is at the navel of the sea! 
By the tree on the broken rock ! 
Enter not the lines drawn by my teacher ! 
Else will I curse ye with the words, “ There is no 
God but Allah and Muhammad is His Apostle.’’ 
Om! I neutralize all evil! 
Oh! Solomon in the name of God.
