1. أَبْقَاكَ ظِلاَّ لِلْعِبَادِ وَمَلْجَأً

    وَأَعَانَكَ الرَّحْمَانُ مِنْ سُلطْانِ

    May He preserve you as shade and refuge for the people,

    and may the All-Merciful aid you as sovereign.

  2. قَدْ زَيَّنَ الدُّنْيَا بِنُورِ جَمَالِهِ

    فَلِذّاكَ مَا يُدْعَى أَبَا زِيَّانِ

    He has indeed adorned the world with the light of his beauty;

    that is why he is called Abu Zayyan.
