أحْسِنْ بهِ من قِناعٍ
راقَ العُيونَ جَمالا
With a veil finer than his face
Whose beauty outshines all eyes,
حَوَى منَ الوجْهِ بدْراً
فاقَ البدورَ كَمالا
His cheek holds a full moon
That exceeds all full moons in perfection.
أبْدَى علَى كُلّ نوْعٍ
تهْوَى القُلوبُ اشْتِمالا
He displays over every type
Hearts that yearn for inclusion,
فصيّرتهُ اخْتيالاً
خيْلُ الجمالِ مَجالا
So I made him the epitome
Of the horses of beauty galloping.
من خالِصِ التّبْرِ جلّتْ
صِفاتُه أنْ تُنالا
From pure innocence his traits
Are too sublime to attain,
شمْسُ الأصيلِ حكَتْهُ
لوْناً وحُسْناً وحالا
The sun of the noble inscribed him
In color, beauty, and state.
مِن ناصرِ الدّينِ يحْكي
مَناقباً وخِلالا
From Nasir al-Din it tells
Of virtues and fine qualities,
فالجودُ قدْ مدّ منهُ
على الوُجودِ ظِلالا
So generosity has extended from him
Shadows over existence.
