كريمٌ متى ضل قصاده

فطيب الثناء عليه دليلُ

Noble is he who went astray,

For good praise of him is proof.

محياه كالشمس عند الضحى

ويا حسنه في المعالي أصيلُ

His life is like the dawn sun,

And his virtues most sublime.

طربت له إذ وجدت الغنى

وقد جاد لي والغمامُ الرسيل

I rejoiced when I found wealth,

As he gave generously like pouring rain.
