My worth has been ennobled by a system of poetry

شرف الدين قد تشرف قدري

1. My worth has been ennobled by a system of poetry
That transcends all verse

١. شَرَفَ الدينِ قَد تَشَرَّفَ قَدري
بِنظامٍ يَبأى عَلى كُلِّ شِعرِ

2. You have threaded a path of pearls
And pioneered a way

٢. سِلكُ دُرٍّ سَلَكتَ فيهِ طَريقاً
أَعجَزَ الناسَ في نِظامٍ وَنَثرِ

3. That has perplexed people in both prose and verse
It is no wonder your words are pearls

٣. لا عَجيبٌ مِن كَون لَفظِكَ دُرّاً
أَنتَ بَحرٌ وَالبَحرُ يَرمِي بِدُرِّ

4. For you are an ocean, and the ocean casts forth pearls
What a difference between a 'd' and a 'z'

٤. هُوَ فَرقٌ ما بَينَ ضادٍ وَظاءٍ
وَهوَ جَمعٌ ما بَينَ زَهرٍ وَزَهرِ

5. What a union between a flower and flowers
What path has time taken to be manifested?

٥. أَيُّ سِلكٍ بِهِ الزَمانُ تَجلّى
أَيُّ سِحرٍ أَربى عَلى كُلِّ سِحرِ
