1. Your generosity doubles Syria's prosperity
A free, wise, just man

2. Whose friendship I witnessed
He emulated Ibn Adham in piety

3. And in his knowledge, emulated Ibn Malik
His compassion almost revived

4. All the conditions of the kingdoms
And his swords erase the darkness

5. Like tent poles erase traces
I informed the Master of what I have

6. Of the quality of situations
To defend me from an affliction

7. More deeply-rooted than your mountains
I have nothing left but some

8. Poems and verses, mere nothings
May God open the best paths

9. For His servants through your wisdom
And prolong the loftiness of your glory

10. An honor for the owned and the owner
So that in its history remains

11. A name like yours, Tahsin Malik
