1. I have heard Muhammad ibn 'Atiyya
Then I heard Ishaaq ibn Ibrahim
١. وَلَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَطِيَّةٍ
فَسَمِعْتُ إِسْحاقَ بن إِبْراهِيمِ
2. As though I were Ja'far in glory
And Harun al-Rashid were my boon companion
٢. حَتَّى كَأَنِّي في الْجَلالَةِ جَعْفَرٌ
وَكَأَنَّ هارُونَ الرَّشيدَ نَديمي
3. As though in delight and joy of spirit
We were given to drink at Tasnim
٣. وَكأَنَّنا فرَحاً وَلَذَّةَ أَنْفُسٍ
نُسْقى بِعِلِّيِّيْنَ مِنْ تَسْنيمِ
