كتبَ الأميرُ كتائبٌ في المعركَه

والرأيُ منهُ طيبُ داءِ المملكه

The prince wrote battalions in the battle

And his opinion is a cure for the kingdom's malady

وإذا رمى بالظنِّ خطباً مشكِلاً

أضحتْ ستورُ الغيبِ عنه مُهَتَّكه

When he aims with speculation at perplexing affairs

The veils of the unseen are torn away before him
