1. قَرَّبَ اللَهُ بِالسَلامِ وَحَيّا

    زَكَرِيّا بنَ طَلحَةَ الفَيّاضِ

    May God bring near with peace and greet

    Zakariyya, son of Talha the Bountiful,

  2. مَعدِنَ الضَيفِ إِن أَناخوا إِلَيهِ

    بَعدَ أَينِ الطَلائِحِ الأَنقاضِ

    A haven for guests, should they make their camels kneel before him,

    After the weariness of exhausted, wasted camels—

  3. ساهِماتُ العُيونِ خوصٌ رَذايا

    قَد بَراها الكَلالُ بَعدَ إِباضِ

    Haggard-eyed, sunken-eyed, spent,

    Exhaustion has worn them thin after hobbling.

  4. زادَهُ خالِدُ اِبنُ عَمِّ أَبيهِ

    مَنصِباً كانَ في العُلا ذا اِنتِفاضِ

    Khalid, his father's cousin, raised his

    Standing, which had been shaky amid the heights.

  5. فَرعُ تَيمٍ مِن تَيمِ مُرَّةَ حَقّاً

    قَد قَضى ذاكَ لِاِبنِ طَلحَةَ قاضِ

    A true scion of Taym, of Taym of Murra—

    A judge has indeed ruled that for the son of Talha.
