1. أَنا مُمْتَطى بَدْرٍ وليث صَوَّرا

    شخصاً زَهَا الدُّنيا بِهِ وَالدِّينِ

    I am the mount of a full moon and a lion, who together fashioned

    A person through whom the world and faith grew splendid.

  2. فأجِلْ لِحَاظَكَ فيَّ تَنْظُرْ آلَةً

    جَمَعَتْ محاسِنَ هالَةٍ وعَرِينِ

    So turn your gaze upon me: you will see an instrument

    That combined the beauties of a halo and a lion’s den.
