1. عَلَمَ الدّينِ مَنْ غَدا باتِّفاقٍ

    فَذَّ جِيلِ التَّحقيقِ في العَرَبيَّهْ

    O ʿAlam al-Dīn, who has become, by common consent,

    Peerless among the generation of rigorous scholars in Arabic,

  2. وكَذا في الأُصُولِ والصَّرْفِ والتَّفْ

    سيرِ ثُمَّ المسائِلِ الفِقْهيَّهْ

    And likewise in legal principles, morphology, and ex-

    egesis, then questions of jurisprudence:

  3. إنَّ إنْجازَ ذَلِكَ الوعْدِ مِنْكُمْ

    هُوَ واللهِ عِنْدِيَ الأمْنِيَّهْ

    Indeed, your fulfillment of that promise

    Is, by God, my wish.
