1. Two young lions or two fierce lions, for I see
The blood of their prey is their food.

2. My insight tells me that in their clothes
Are two lions that even lions avoid their ferocity.

3. Why do they not surpass people in virtues
When both their grandfathers were masters?

4. You meet the father of al-Hayja’ in their fury
And you see the superiority of Abul ‘Alaa in their loftiness.

5. We have increased their honored lineage, firmly established,
When we entrusted leadership to them.

6. I distinguished between them but they did not compete,
Like two shining stars their conditions are equal.

7. And even though partisanship is my quality,
I do not deny the eminent nobility of either.

8. How can one whose father has become his father
Fall short of any position of superiority and glory?

9. But for those two there is a special eminent place
None can claim among the people but them.

10. Congratulations and congratulations to the brother of generous men, his brother,
And their parents, and congratulations to those who raised them.
