1. إذا لَمْ أَعُدْ بالحِلْمِ منّي عليكمُ

    فَمَنْ ذا الذي بَعْدِي يُؤَمَّلُ للحِلْمِ

    If I do not bestow my forbearance upon you,

    then who after me can be looked to for forbearance?

  2. خُذِيها هَنيئاً واذكري فِعْلَ مَاجدٍ

    جَزَاكِ عَلَى حَرْبِ العداوةِ بالسِّلْمِ

    Take it with pleasure, and remember the deed of a noble man

    who repaid you for hostile warfare with peace.
