1. Remember Abu Ja'far truly, I die for him
However I long for you, we both love literature
١. اِذكُر أَبا جَعفَرٍ حَقّاً أَمُتُّ بِهِ
أَنى وَإِيّاكَ مَشغوفانِ بِالأَدَبِ
2. We have drunk from the cup again and again
The cup is an inheritance, a fate from ancestry
٢. وَأَنَّنا قَد رَضَعنا الكَأسَ دِرَّتَها
وَالكَأسُ دِرَّتُها حَظٌّ مِنَ النَسَبِ
