1. إنّ أنوشَرْوان ما فيهِ

    سوى قيامٍ لمُرجّيهِ

    Indeed, Anushirwan has nothing in him

    Except rising for the one who hopes in him.

  2. الجودُ كلّ الجودِ في رجله

    وإن تعدّى فإلى فيهِ

    Generosity—all generosity—is in his foot;

    And if it goes further, it reaches his mouth.

  3. روّجْ لراجيك ولو حبّةً

    واقعُدْ على العرشِ من التّيهِ

    Encourage the one who hopes in you, even with a grain,

    And sit upon the throne in haughty pride.
