  1. يا فريداً في المجد غير مشارك

    عزَّ باريك في الورى وتبارك

    O peerless one in glory, with no rival,

    Mighty is your Maker among humankind, and blessed is He.

    لت سعود الافلاك تعمر دارك

    O Abu Maʿmar, may you live long, and may

    the celestial spheres' good fortunes never cease to make your home flourish.

  3. يا هلال الايام قد كتب الأي

    ام في دفتر العلى آثارك

    O crescent of the days, the days have inscribed

    your deeds in the register of glory.

  4. ولسان الزمان يدرس في كلِّ م

    مكان على الورى أخبارك

    And the tongue of time recites in every

    place, to humankind, news of you.

  5. سيدي أنت من يشق غبارك

    بأبي أنت من يروم فخارك

    You are my lord—who can break through your dust?

    May my father ransom you—who can aspire to your glory?

  6. أنت من فيه خالق الخلق بارك

    وحباك العلى وزكى نجارك

    You are the one whom the Creator of all creation has blessed;

    And He endowed you with eminence and purified your lineage.

  7. ما ترى في مناسب لك في الآ

    داب قد صار دأبه تذكارك

    What do you think of one akin to you in the literary

    arts, whose constant occupation has become remembering you?

  8. شوقته اليك اوصافك الغر م

    فجاب البلاد حتى زارك

    Your radiant qualities made him yearn for you,

    So he traversed the lands until he visited you.

  9. هل تراه لديك أهلاً لان تم

    نحه يا أخا العلى إيثارك

    Do you deem him worthy, in your eyes, of your granting

    him, O brother of eminence, your favor?

  10. فهو ضيف قراه انفس علق

    فاقره الود واسقه اشعارك

    For he is a guest whose fare is the most precious treasure;

    So feast him on affection, and give him your poems to drink.

  11. وتملَّ الزمان في ظل عيش

    مثمر لا يمل قط جوارك

    And long enjoy the years in the shade of a life

    fruitful, never tiring of your company.
