من حوى الإصطبار يحمد مآله

وهو لاشكّ بالغٌ آماله

Whoever endures patiently will praise his outcome

Undoubtedly achieving his hopes

وحوى السّعد من حوى الرّأي فالزم

قُرب من قد خلا لهُ وخلا له

And happiness comes from wisdom so stick to

Being close to one who has secluded himself and secluded for him

ما أرى العزّ ان جلا الرأي إلا

عزّ من قد جلا لهُ وجلا له

I do not see glory unless the opinion is sublime

The glory of one who has secluded himself and secluded for him

وإذا الرأيُ صاحب العزم فاجزم

أنّه من سعى لهُ أو سعا له

And when opinion accompanies determination, be sure

That he who strived for him or strove for him

من حوى ذي الخصال عادت عداهُ

حين تدري خصالهُ كالخصاله

Whoever possessed such traits, his enemies came back to him

When you know his traits are like his traits

كخصال حوى لها ابنُ حسين

لا يرى قد حوى لها من حواله

Like the traits of one who possessed for them the son of Hussein

None sees he possessed for them from all his surroundings

ملكٌ كلّ كلُّ من رام يحكي

من معالي كماله وكماله

A king, all, every one who wanted to relate

From the sublime perfection of his perfection and his perfection

يعشق العفو عشق غيلان ميا

فحباهُ المنى لهُ ومناله

He loves pardon with the love of one intensely in love

So the wishes granted him and his wishes

حرّم السفك عنه لاكسواهُ

إذ يراه حلا له وحلاله

He forbade bloodshed from himself to adorn him

When he sees it permitted for him and his permits

مُسرعٌ للعطا ويعظم بطئا

رفد من قد نوى له ونواله

Hastening to give and esteems slowing down

Supporting whom he intended for him and his intentions

من رمى للحبى حبالة مدح

فيه ألقى الحبا لهُ والحباله

Whoever aims at the beloved his ropes of love poetry

In it he cast the ropes of love for him and his ropes

فيه بئر يدل بالرّفد للعا

في فيلقي الدّلالة والدّلالة

In it is a well he points to for the thirsty one to drink

So he throws to him the indicators and his indicators

لاأراني إلا له منهُ حساما

من يديه نبا لهُ ونباله

I do not see myself except for him, from him a sword

From his hands, shooting for him and his arsenal

فسيكفي العدوّ يوما ويعطي

مغرما من حمى له وحماله

So the enemy will suffice, one day, and will give, an enamored one

From protecting for him and his protections

دام في العزّ ماضي العزم ملكا

ليس يشكو كلالهُ وكلاله

Lasting in glory, determined, a king

Not complaining of his fatigue and his fatigues

هو من ربّه العليّ غدا في

حرز أمن كفالة وكفى له

He whom from his Lofty Lord became in the morning

In the safekeeping of guaranteed protection and enough for him
