1. أَشَمُّ مِن الَّذينَ بِهِم قُرَيشٌ

    تُداوي بَينَها غَبَنَ القَبيلِ

    A lofty noble, one of those through whom Quraysh

    redresses in its midst the injustice suffered by the tribe.

  2. كَأَنَّ تَلألؤَ المَعروفِ فيهِ

    شُعاعُ الشَمسِ في السَيفِ الصَقيلِ

    As though the gleam of benevolence in him

    were the sun’s radiance on a polished sword.
