1. بأيّ بديعٍ أم بأيّ بلاغةٍ

    أفوه بحمد الذات في الوصف والاسمِ

    With what rhetorical artistry, or with what eloquence,

    can I voice praise of the Essence in attribute and name?

  2. ولكنّها عيني الّتي كم أرى بها

    تجلي هباتي لاح في البدء والختم

    Yet it is my eye, through which I so often see

    the manifestation of my gifts, which shone at the beginning and the end.
