1. Poetry is still the tongue of time
It teaches mankind eloquence

2. And poets are the foremost princes
Whose words are enchanting and meanings sublime

3. Were it not for the sanctity of their compositions
Their verses would have been made part of the Quran

4. And Ka'b would not have been graced with the mantle
Of the Prophet when he won the security mantle

5. Its reservoirs have not diminished their waters
As if it were the sea that never diminishes

6. And it is, by my life, a translator and there is no
Other like it among people as a translator

7. But its market has been stifled
So it has lived in this age in the garb of disgrace

8. How many full moons were diminished because of it
Of precious and complete dinars

9. And the true bedouin Arabs were, because of it
In bygone times the people of sedition

10. And their compilation was the distinguisher
Between the pretentious innovator and the eloquent one

11. So its pitcher was diminished after them
And the elevated pitcher became disgraced

12. As well as what is safe from a plagiarizer
And the two-faced among them exceeded limits and betrayed

13. Challenger of the religion while you are the one
Who ignites war in the blazers a helpful war

14. They are the thieves, the plagiarizers
You have humiliated each obstinate transgressor

15. The trusted supporter of the kingdom is courageous so
Time does not clatter for him with spears

16. And this state is a spear which
God has set in place of the spear

17. The owner of Shurbush, his glory
Shames the wearer of the fur hat and sash

18. He is the brilliant prince who
Settled in the highest place from the Exalted

19. I said to Ibrahim the words of a man
Who believes truthfully and has no doubt in speech

20. You are the one who both East and West
Have borne witness for the success of his efforts

21. If you were in the time before us
Abdulrahman would have been a slave to you

22. Extracting currencies from whoever disobeyed
For he is, even if bold, a coward

23. Take my currency from a thieving apostate
And do not let him feel safe from fear of you

24. Opinionated about my words, changing them
As Abu Ja'dah did on the Sarh plain

25. Leave him be, competing with a ball soaked
In the field of battle with the polo stick

26. I have a sermon like scattered pearls and in it
Poetry more beautiful than necklaces of affection

27. As if the leader of Eiyad came with it
In which is the surplus of Sahan the evident

28. In it is of divine oneness what silenced the
Polytheist by reason and cutting off the tongue

29. And praise of the Chosen One by which
I hope tomorrow for success in the Garden of Bliss

30. And praise of the companions of the noble Prophet
Their status is felicity, excellent affair

31. And praise of our master the Imam whose
Obedience is obligatory in this time

32. Then the just king, the executor
Of your resolute decree, O blade of Yemen

33. And praise of you resembling in its beauty
The praise of Zuhair for the one whose father is Sinan

34. And I have never been miserly with what
I have composed of my poetry when helped

35. How many well-crafted poems I composed for a man
Which were reciprocated from him with fine connections

36. Oh you who are the scholar in our time
Contained in one body in a place

37. You are from God insights as such
Whoever fears God the Exalted has insights
