1. Our companion today has nothing strange in his speech
And everything he says is strange

2. I have not tasted blame on his mouth
Rather he is a burrow whose cover is a tail

3. A burrow in which there is a young camel at his burrow's entrance
I recognized him underneath his beard a wart

4. O my enviers of his eloquence
Not every desired target is hit by seeking

5. In his palm are reeds for racing
Reeds planted underneath its fingernails

6. They said: And his palm's pens are twigs
I said: You lie, his pens are tendons

7. And I see people before him wrote
No, they neither recited nor wrote

8. If there was an error in his manuscripts
Your age is long and kinship is near

9. Leave his pearls alone and enough for you
When you have managed thorns on him

10. Woe to a name you wrote so on
Its letters dirt from it sticks

11. A caliph from Bani Othman did not
Elevate over us through it nor fortified

12. The excellent ancient template as
It narrates from them, and the secret and refinement

13. And explaining what the secretaries said about the patch
Until books became inflated

14. And this journey which I contracted became
Neither a purpose under it nor a cause

15. And the section's ending with the answer for it
An obligatory eloquence it must overcome

16. From it we sought you out with what you wrote
And we knew bare it the veils

17. And if you started the book in Rajab
And the matter becomes easy Rajab did not dissolve

18. This is to a gathering whose humor
Is ripe fruit in hearts it gets stolen

19. In the non-Arab state from his writing
A miracle supported by it the Arabs

20. The vast plain of Persia and what
Books claim on its behalf it does not deny

21. If Egypt permits to part from him
Then Baghdad compared to it is Aleppo

22. I seek refuge for its scout and its rider
Other than the horses cure it the dogs

23. He flowed over us so our sayer said
Does the Sheikh fall? I said: No, he jumps

24. Angrily and the ignited angry person's fire
And other than his pens it has the fuel

25. I directed what was between us, reproaching
So let lovers reproach if they reproached

26. And nothing happened in the talk angrily
With everything from you nor anger

27. Oh noble one, no nobles cautioned you
Nor did his hump get crossed by a brand

28. And I have not seen Sudan riding
On its back like what monkeys are seen

29. No bolting from your belly nor
Does anger spread from your meadows

30. Neither did snorting deter it
Nor did neighing and confusion help you

31. I pray for it and praying is its highest
What was raised by polishing the veils

32. And you are not devoid of continuous comfort
In which mourning and deprivation cease

33. Oh planter of thorns, its ultimate end
Is that thorns are harvested from it, not grapes

34. Our registry, if its fiber is foreign
Then it about it is not estranged

35. And which elegy other than it if
The writers were lamented, the meadow's disability laments

36. It begot whom it titled honorable
Thus by my life a title gives life

37. Without a just king whose rule
So where, where are the life source and Arabs

38. Is not this camel between our companion
And what they ride a lineage

39. And a facility if its seeker loses it
Then woe to the losers and war

40. He hopes for it and the bridle is its easiest
Kinships are pastured from it and relatives
