1. مُوَفَّقٌ لِسبيلِ الرُشدِ مُتَّبِعٌ

    يَزينُهُ كُلُّ ما يُؤتى وَيَجتَنِبُ

    Guided to the path of rectitude, he follows it;

    All he undertakes and all he shuns adorn him.

  2. تَسمو العُيونُ إِلَيهِ كُلَّما اِنفَرَجَت

    لِلناسِ عَن وَجهِهِ الأَبوابُ وَالحُجُبُ

    Eyes lift toward him whenever there is a parting

    Of doors and veils, revealing his face to the people.

  3. لَهُ خَلائِقُ بيضٌ لا يُغَيِّرُها

    صَرفُ الزَمانِ كَما لا يَصدَأُ الذَهَبُ

    He has virtues, pure white, that are not altered

    By time’s vicissitudes, just as gold does not rust.
