1. إِلَى الصَّدِيقِ الأَبَر أُهْدِي

    جَهْدَ مُقِلَّ هَذَا المِثَالاَ

    To the most devoted friend I dedicate

    This likeness, the offering of one with little to give.

  2. وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ إِلاَّ وَفَاءُ

    شُعَاعُهُ يَمْلأُ الظِّلاَلاَ

    And in it is nothing but loyalty,

    Whose radiance fills the shadows.
