1. O son of al-Musayyab, you lived in luxury
And were spared ruin and affliction.

2. O poet of the noble non-Arabs, as
Ibn Hujr was the poet of the Arabs.

3. O leader of the refined, not falsely,
O exemplar of the literary in literature.

4. Reach your comrades, they have fallen
Into narcissus, with it the grape's daughter.

5. They are in a state, if you could see it,
You would praise in wonder and wonder.

6. Their basil is gold on pearls
And their drink is pearls on gold.

7. A cup, when water hits it,
Pours pearls from it without effort.

8. In a winter garden milked
The pearls of life's milk on milk.

9. From a blossom a tree covered
For the birds in it every playfulness.

10. The lights breathe in it, arousing
From it whichever rapture.

11. So it remains in the best company
As if it were in the worst company.

12. The lute resounds so that it may answer it
A infatuated, beloved twittering.

13. The day is buried, so its heat
In it with a rising and setting.

14. A sun that hides us, and it sent
A light that observes us without flame.

15. O narcissus of the world, stay forever
For proposing and constant refinement.

16. The eyes' gold when you represent to us
The pearls of eyelids, emerald of bezels.

17. Still you are half of comfort, you two
Are the hearts' tranquility and the goal of desires.

18. And I see listening making you two triple,
Like a son to a free mother and father.
