1. يا كاملَ الخلقةِ معْ فقدِهِ

    لأصبعيهِ ما بذا ذامُ

    O you of perfect form, despite the loss

    of your two fingers—there is no fault in that.

  2. ليسَ لمعروفِكَ سبابةٌ

    ولا لإحسانِكَ إبهامُ

    Your kindness has no reviling forefinger,

    nor your generosity a thumb—or ambiguity.
