وَعَدتَ بِتَشريفي وَأُنس مَنازلي

وَوَعدُ الفتى دَيْنٌ بِدونِ تَوقّفِ

You promised to honor me and delight my home,

And a young man's promise is a debt to be promptly paid.

وَإِنّي اِمرُؤٌ لِلوَعدِ أَعلى مطالبٍ

وَأَنت اِمرُؤٌ في الدّهر أَكبرُ مَنْ يفي

I am a man who asks much of a promise,

And you are the greatest man in this world to keep promises.
