خَيرُ الوَرى لِخِيارِ الناسِ كُلِّهُمُ
وَشَرُّهُم لِشِرارِ الناسِ سَوّارُ
To every good man, he is the best of humankind;
to the wicked, equally the worst of them.
مُنَبَّهُ الذِكرِ مَعلومٌ طَرائِقُهُ
كَالشَمسِ لا عَلَمٌ في رَأسِهِ نارُ
Renowned in name, his paths are guiding landmarks,
like the sun—not a mere fire upon a mountain peak.
Sol 5.6
