1. تِرْب الخطابةِ والمجادَة

    والعُلا بجميلِ عَهْدكْ

    O peer of oratory and nobility,

    and eminence—by your gracious pledge,

  2. وبطيب ما جنحت له الخُلصا

    ءُ من إِحرازِ ودّكْ

    and by the sweetness of what loyal friends inclined toward

    in securing your affection,

  3. مكّن لواحظَ مُقْلِة المشتا

    قِ من تاريخِ جَدِّكْ

    give the glances of the yearning one's eye access

    to the date of your good fortune.
