1. My master Badr al-Din, you began me
With grace that made you deserving of my thanks,
١. أَمَولايَ بَدْرَ الدِّينِ أَنتَ بَدَأْتَني
بفضلٍ بهِ أَصبحتَ مُستَوْجِباً شكري
2. Yet this requires your completion.
For who is more deserving of perfection than the full moon?
٢. ولكنَّهُ يَحتاجُ مِنكَ تَتمَّةً
وَمَنْ هُوَ أَولَى بالتَّمامِ مَن البْدرِ
