Who can recount the virtues of Al-Fushtālī,

من ذا يعد فضائل الفشتالي

1. Who can recount the virtues of Al-Fushtālī,
As time inscribes his signs, one after another.

١. مَنْ ذَا يَعُدُّ فَضَائِلَ الْفَشْتَالِي
وَالدَّهْرُ كَاتِبُ آيِهَا وَالتَّالِي

2. A flag, when they seek sciences, his knowledge,
Is the pasture of revival and livelihood of the weary.

٢. عَلَمٌ إِذَا الْتَمَسُوا الْفُنُونَ فَعِلْمُهُ
مَرْعَى الْمُشِيحِ وَنُجْعَةُ الْمُكْتَالِ

3. He attained the elevation, above which there is no loftier,
That no strategem of the schemer has hoped for.

٣. نَالَ الّتِي لاَ فَوْقَها مِنْ رِفْعَةٍ
مَا أَمَّلَتْهَا حِيلَةُ الْمُحْتَالِ

4. And the assessment of his heritage from his ancestors
Showed that the best among them is the latter one.

٤. وَقَضَى قِيَاسُ تُرَاثِهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ
أَنَّ الْمُقَدَّمَ فِيهِ عَيْنُ الْتَّالِي
