1. O one whose glorious deeds abound
And keen intellect is hardened steel

2. Son of one who adorned his disciples
With beneficial guidance most ideal

3. Aid Ibn Zakour to improve
This poem of mine, if you so feel

4. By your presence, though lofty your station
Beyond what I can make appeal

5. Or send the papers with
One whose path is most virtuous and real

6. We'll send them back before long
To gleam with gems that fields do yield

7. May God make your existence endure
To bring out the finest life can wield
