1. عَلَى أَهْلِ الْعَلاَءِ أَبِي عَلِيِّ

    سَلاَمٌ مِنْ أَخِي سَلَمٍ صَفِيِّ

    Upon Abu Ali, a man of eminence,

    be peace from a sincere brother of peace.

  2. يَوَدُّ دُنُوَّهُ مِنْ كُلِّ خَيْرٍ

    وَيَهْوَى بُعْدَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ غَيِّ

    He wishes him near to all that is good,

    and desires him far from every error.

  3. وَيُبْهِجُهُ التَّهَانِي بِالأَمَانِي

    وَإِبْقَاءُ الْغَلِيِّ عَلَى الْوَلِيِّ

    And felicitations with good wishes gladden him,

    as does preserving the dear one for his friend.
