Praising them is my daily occupation

مدح بني الأيام لي شغل

1. Praising them is my daily occupation
No doubt, they are proverbially exemplary

١. مدحُ بني الأَيام لي شُغلُ
لا شكَّ فيهِ يضرب المثلُ

2. My tongue is too weak to praise them enough
So with my heart I praise them, nothing less

٢. عَجز اللِسان بِنيله فَلذا
بِالقَلب أمدحهم وَلا دخلُ

3. Noble virtues they have, I praise yet they don't boast
Kindness they possess, I expect yet they don't withhold

٣. شيمٌ لَهُم حمدت فَما لئموا
نعمٌ لهم عهدت فما بَخلوا

4. Great aspirations they nurture, I wish well yet they don't lose
Wisdom they own, I counsel yet they are never oblivious

٤. هممٌ لهم سعدت فَما خَسروا
فِطنٌ لَهُم رشدت فَما غفلوا
