1. The verses of your connection, he recites to the people
A pouring that memory moves to the people

2. And the promise of your connection is a debt that has no loyalty
I wish it had been with estrangement, O cruel one

3. My cup I mixed with my sorrows while I have a body
Naked from nakedness but clothed with thrift

4. And after you the taste of patience turned
Into a cup that makes the senses numb when sipped

5. O you who turned away from a lone, base person
Who spent the night playing solo against doubles

6. And when freshness appeared on my cheek to me
I confronted my hopes of meeting him with despair

7. Your cheek does not fear Sulwan for its height
For it is to the heart's wounds like a staff

8. Stop to receive my eyelids after the pouring tears poured blood
There is no harm in your standing at the pouring

9. Blowing gently, if the branch saw it bending
The twigs of the May tree would not bend with it

10. How much his trinkets said to me when they saw my infatuation
Take your dignity and leave me and my obsession

11. No reproach in it, yet the standing of the spear
But my heart has become to it like a fortress

12. The stalks of chamomile turn the sun in their hands
They have softened a little, but their hearts are cruel

13. To its lovers, the standing of its spear
Is a stab that reminds us of the plague of ‘Amwas

14. And its cheek if revealed under its height
You’d think it in the darkness the illumination of embers

15. And its nape has alighted from beneath it a shoulder
Like a branch above the firmly rooted hill

16. A smile of a mouth, so what a joy if the ardent
Does not meet it when seeing it with Al-‘Abbas

17. An attacker from the sons of Satan fought me
So every hour of blame is a day of weakness

18. He blames me for my aspiration to supremacy but
I have no answer but that I am lowly to him

19. I faced the blame with prohibition when I said to him
Have you broadened my ideas or constricted my breath?

20. I am the meteor who took the horizon as residence
When by Allah’s grace I ascended amongst the people

21. The close pulling friend whose tail is chaste
Dragging clouds that do not cease in despair

22. Verily the clouds, when they competed with him, exhausted them
Yes, and in the Nile what distant did I measure!

23. It conforms to the origin, the scent of good mention
So from the testimony of the heart, one who is joyful and firm

24. He has renounced asceticism so his sins are not known
But his hours are days of weddings

25. If he revels in the land of paper, he has a pen
More comely than a branch from the gardens blowing gently

26. A charm that stabs the enemy and delights us
Thus it is a fragrant piece of wood of different species

27. If the spiritual were dressed, it would then, when
It is clearly and eloquently described

28. From a family who took captive discourse that
The sublime were unable to reach, they affirmed principles

29. The sons of the place of beauty, the gazelles of gatherings, but
The lion of knights whether on the stairs or in affliction

30. If they build glory one day over glory
You see wonders in the solidity of foundations

31. With pride it is said and with glory they climbed ranks
That even the son of ‘Abbad ibn al-Abbas did not attain

32. You see wonders of the deeds of their glory
If not for seeing I would deny everything imagined

33. My Master, my Master Glory of the Faith, the call of one
Who sent to your praise the goals of noble steeds

34. If I scarce versify and forget your praise a while
You abundantly forgive the mistakes of people

35. If the singer of odes stays, he did not cease dwelling
In your meadows, and it is not other than unconcealed from you

36. As for elegy, praise is worthier along with
The fact that drinking elegy cups makes the senses reel

37. Upon the martyr the clouds of pardon replace
Him in the grave after distress with comfort

38. While you remain as you choose to leave him
O best branch, one who drew near from the best tree trunks!

39. I reviewed your revealed collection which manifests its merits
As if it were in the heights the light of a lantern

40. In its folds the diffusion of a scent that does not cease to fragrance
With pure musk and camphor flakes

41. You are still the pinnacle of literature and your origin has
Settled, so ennoble both states with the head!

42. And may you remain disclosing baseness, fasting from
Obscenity, sublime, while your equal is the well-fed clothed one

43. No star appeared, so whether in the sky so it gives guidance
Or in the land so of basil and myrtle
