1. With a grave, dignified air, he prepared his traveling provisions—
The milk of the oleaster filled his waterskin.

2. Al-Walid offered him the horse's saddle and bridle,
And likewise the other his saddle and bridle.

3. Al-Muqanna' gifted al-Walid a poem
Keen-edged like a sword in its eloquence.

4. He has glorious deeds among all Quraysh
And the caliphate after Hisham's death.
