1. لِأَميرَنا اِبنِ مُرادَ مِلحمَ قَد أَتى

    نَجلٌ تَسَربلَ بِالجَلالِ الأَشرفِ

    To our prince Milhem, son of Murad, has come

    a son robed in the noblest majesty.

  2. حَيٌ فَسارَ عَلَيهِ مَدمَعُ فارِحٍ

    بَدَلاً بِهِ عَن مَدمَعِ المُتَلهِّفِ

    Alive—so tears of joy flowed over him,

    replacing, through him, the tears of one grieving.

  3. كَمُلَ الجمالُ اليوسُفيُّ بِهِ كَما

    تَمَّ البَهاءُ لَدَيهِ وَاللُطفُ الخَفِي

    Yusuf-like beauty was perfected in him, just as

    splendor and hidden grace reached their fullness in him.

  4. وافى بِتاريخٍ فَأَصبَحَ جامِعاً

    ضوءَ الشِهابِ عَلى مَحاسِنِ يوسُفِ

    He arrived with a chronogram, thus uniting

    the meteor's light with Yusuf's charms.
