1. بدار الياس قد حلَّت فجلَّت

    فَتاةٌ قد كَساها الحسنُ بُردَه

    In Elias's house she has settled and become exalted—

    a maiden whom beauty has clothed in its mantle.

  2. رأَوها زهرةً ارَّخت فاقت

    فسمَّوها لذلك باسم ورده

    They saw her as a flower; I composed a chronogram: “She excelled,

    so for that reason they named her Warda (Rose).”
