If you seek Abu Bakr, they are in every open space,

إن كنت تبغي أبا بكر فإنهم

1. If you seek Abu Bakr, they are in every open space,
With traces of them everywhere among the people.

١. إنْ كُنْتَ تَبْغِي أبا بَكْرٍ فإنَّهُمُ
بِكُلِّ ساحَةِ قَوْمٍ مِنْهُمُ أَثَرُ

2. Whether in good or bad times across the horizons,
Their enemies cannot touch them, nor plot against them.

٢. نُعْمَى وبُؤْسى بآفاقِ البِلادِ فما
ينالُ أعْداؤُهُمْ مِنْهُمُ ولا قَدَرُوا

3. When matters tighten for the knowledgeable,
Where can conversation and patience break through?

٣. والعالِمُونَ إذا ما الأمْرُ ضاقَهُمُ
أَنَّى يُحاوَلُ فيه الوِرْدُ والصَدَرُ

4. I chose the family of Abu Bakr for our need,
Among them is the best for whoever would choose them.

٤. واخْتَرْتُ آلَ أبي بَكْرٍ لحاجَتِنا
وكانَ فيهِمْ لمَنْ يَخْتارُهُمْ خِيَرُ

5. I never suspected the sons of Jazr with any doubt,
They did no wrong and did not fail what they ventured.

٥. وما اتَّهَمْتُ بني جَزْءٍ بظِنّتِهِ
ومَا أساؤُوا وما ضاعَ الذي خَطَروا
