1. In contentment of the Lord and Master
Stay happy, O father of medicine

2. O leader of the palace from old
And pillar of the age in succession

3. All the land's prosperity focused
In you as a great symbol

4. With resolute, definitive opinion
Decisive in affirmation and negation

5. Of true glory, its sincerity
When glory is bought with lies

6. Far from worries, busy
In mending the rift with connection

7. Neither hesitant nor confused
Between the pull of thought and determination

8. He protected the rights of the country with
What knowledge contains of resolution

9. When he saw it and the people declined
They did not stop at the start of the path

10. And their contentment is peace, most similar
To what was in its heels with war

11. So seriously he strove to return
What was lost of its affairs in play

12. And with what he spent in its victory
He counts among its brave heroes

13. Traveling in God's cause
The intense veils parted for him

14. His life and money were sacrificed
In devotion serving the people

15. Egypt, when it lost him
Was intense in its anguish

16. And those who missed him made clear
His value over the pouring of sunset

17. Can the tears of the eye avail
In the Highest, for the falling stars?

18. His right is remembrance that immortalizes him
With good words, not crying

19. And meanings that can keep
The face of the living when crying ceases

20. From the highest, noble origin, he smiled
Upon this family and friends

21. Is one without children made wealthy
By them, who has children without merit?

22. Who raises the exceptional from
These elite choice ones?

23. He adopted them, so he has blessings
And successive epochs, epoch by epoch

24. Drops of dew from his concerns
Fruitful like the dew of rainclouds

25. Have you seen righteousness gathering them
Side by side here together?

26. Jesus in his affection was
One in distance and nearness

27. His resolve of flexible character
His nature of solid essence

28. His words in the soul of the listener
Are good like the fresh sweet drink

29. His opinion in every dilemma
Incisive like the sharp sword

30. His generosity healing, he restored
The glory of lofty Egypt

31. He came with an innovation that usurped
Every praise, whatever the usurpation

32. And meanings can have
Like melodies, an awe that captivates

33. There was no one in the East like him
Of that class and upbringing

34. So by my praise today we have
A stance on the Western side

35. How excellent the news of his gift
Say and repeat, O you who declare

36. May one increase our fertile regions
Of abundant yields and livelihoods

37. One whom when the voice of loyalty calls
Says, "I feel a responsiveness"

38. Can abundance benefit a land
When people's hearts are arid?

39. Are the wealthy made proud by it
When their treasure's in the mind, not soil?

40. Egypt, O professor, remembers what
You brought of wonder and awe

41. Whenever time passed with it
It was in venerating you a nurturer

42. Jesus poured his craft
To ransom it the price of melting

43. And I hope he will restore for it
Its status in the state of Arabs

44. So he embarked upon books, producing from them
Verses of education without books

45. And benefited people to the extent
Of what an able adviser can do

46. He is the comforting for the ill
And the consoling for a brother in distress

47. Under the manners of the wise he folded
The generous qualities of the noble man

48. He saw in all affairs how
The first may rise, he of effort

49. He succeeded early, one whose sight
Precedes action in the unseen

50. So when his conduct progressed
He found no hardship in hardship

51. He gave life only the measure
That a bosom friend would give

52. A maturity not tempted
By the world's glamor, nor foolish

53. Finding the beautiful without disdain
And seeing the ugly without blame

54. In him the love of people was most sincere
His pure nature, free of deceit

55. He gave them the best contained
In the verse of love

56. The best that intelligence can bring
Is what comes from the heart

57. That is some of the truth in him, and if
My time continued, it would not be enough

58. So let the gardens be his pasture
Abiding in them, at peace
