1. Honor it with a builder's structure
More firmly rooted in pride than Abaan

2. I have plucked consent's fruits for it
From meanings I have plucked fruits for my soul

3. What fruits for palms are more yielding
Than those for contention my hands can hold

4. I swear by mention and metaphors
You have in what I've heard no second say

5. A goblet smooth, well-wrought of vessels
It quickens speech in every faint heart

6. It says to yearners its disposition
While knowledge from finery of yearners hides

7. O Lord, bless whom built me
In thought, in heart, in eloquence
