فَلَو كانَ يَستَغني عَنِ الشُكرِ ماجِدٌ

لِعِزَّةِ نَفسٍ أَو عُلُوِّ مَكانِ

If Majid could have done without thanks

For his self-pride or rank’s height,

لَما أَمَرَ اللَهُ الحَكيم بِشُكرِه

فَقالَ اِشكُروا لي أَيُّها الثَقلانِ

God the Wise would not have ordered giving thanks to Him

When He said: "Give thanks to Me, O twin burdens."
