1. O Prince who brought to the language of Dhad
Treasures of his knowledge and eloquence
١. يَا أَمِيراً أَهْدَى إِلَى لُغَةِ الضَّادِ
كُنُوزاً مِنْ عِلْمِهِ وَبَيَانِهْ
2. That agricultural dictionary was
A hope fulfilled in its time
٢. ذَلِكَ المِعْجَمُ الزِّرَاعِيُّ قَدْ كَانَ
رَجَاءً حَقَّقَتْهُ فِي أَوَانِهْ
3. A work hardly accomplished except
By an academy with its many helpers
٣. عَمَلٌ لا يُكَادُ يَقْضِيهُ إِلاَّ
مَجْمَعٌ بِالكَثِيرِ مِنْ أَعْوَانِهْ
4. You remain a treasure for it, your feats in
Benefiting this protected realm and raising its stature
٤. دُمْتَ ذُخْراً لَهُ مَآثِرُهُ فِي
نَفْعِ هَذَا الحِمَى وَفِي رَفْعِ شَأْنِهْ
