1. أنظرُ للفْظِ أنا يا مُغْرماً فيهِ

    من حَيث نظْرتنا لعلَّ تدريهِ

    I look at the word “I,” O you enamored of it,

    from our perspective—perhaps you will understand it.

  2. خلِّ أدخارَك لا تفْخر بعارِية

    لا يستعيرُ فقيرٌ من موالِيه

    Give up your hoarding; do not boast of something borrowed.

    A poor man does not borrow from his masters.

  3. جُسومُ أحرُفهِ للسِّرِّ حاملةً

    إِن شئْت تعرِفُه جرِّب معانيه

    The bodies of its letters are bearers of the secret.

    If you wish to know it, put its meanings to the test.
