1. بصالحِ حمصٍ نستعينُ على الثنا

    لديك ونرجوه لنظمِ المدائح

    We seek the aid of Salih of Homs in offering praise

    in your presence, and look to him to compose panegyrics.

  2. ووالله ما نوفي أياديك حقّها

    إذا نحن أثنينا عليك بصالح

    And by God, we do not give your favors their due

    when we praise you through Salih.
