رِواية حِكمَةٍ جَمَعَت فُنوناً

رِواية حِكمَةٍ جَمَعَت فُنوناً

وَآداباً بِها العَقل اِستَنارا

وَآداباً بِها العَقل اِستَنارا

A tale of wisdom gathered many arts,

A tale of wisdom gathered arts,

and letters, through which the mind was enlightened.

And culture that enlightened intellect,

وَمُذ أَرّختها كانَت بِخَير

وَمُذ أَرّختها كانَت بِخَير

حَوَت أَبيات تاريخي اِفتِخارا

حَوَت أَبيات تاريخي اِفتِخارا

And since I dated it, it has fared well;

Since I documented it, it has been virtuous,

the verses of my chronogram held pride.

Containing verses that made history proud.
