يا سَيِداً قَد حَكى تثبتُه

كيوان وَالبَأس مِنهُ بَهراما

O noble one whose nobility is confirmed

Like the celestial sphere, without flaw like Bahram

وَالشَمس وَالبَدر وَجهه

وَحكاه المُشتَري قائِماً صواما

His face is the sun and moon

The moving Jupiter sings his praises while fasting

فَما يُساميه في العُلى أَحَد

وَهُوَ يُسامي النُجوم إِن ساما

None can equal his loftiness

He surpasses the stars, should they vie

لا زلت لي موئلا أردُّ بِهِ

عَني صُروف الزَمان إِن ضاما

You remain my refuge, to which I return

Sheltering me from time's vicissitudes, should they oppress

أَلقاه في كُلِ حاجة عَرَضت

سَمحاً مُريع الجَناب منعاما

I found him in every need that befell me

Generous, quick to aid, ever bountiful
