1. مَلِكٌ لا يُصرّف الأَمرَ والنَه

    يَ لَهُ دونَ رأَيهِ الوزَراءُ

    A king—no command or prohibition is administered

    for him by ministers without his judgment.

  2. حَلَّ في الدَوحتِ التي طالَت النا

    س جَميعاً فَما إِليها ارتِقاءُ

    He has settled in the great spreading tree that towers above

    all people; none can ascend to it.

  3. وَسِعَت كفُّهُ الخَلائقَ جوداً

    فاستَوى الأَغنياءُ والفُقَراءُ

    His hand encompassed all creatures in generosity,

    so the rich and the poor became equal.

  4. يا بَني هاشِم أَفيقوا فإِنَّ ال

    مُلكَ مِنكُم حَيثُ العَصا والرِداءُ

    O sons of Hashim, awaken! For

    kingship among you lies where the staff and mantle are.

  5. ما لِهارونَ في قُريش كفيٌّ

    وقُريشُ لَيسَت لَهُم أَكفاءُ

    Harun has no equal among Quraysh,

    and Quraysh are not their equals.
