لا تَعتَبوا قَطُّ شَخصاً باتَ مُستَحِياً

لَدى خَليلٍ شَريفِ العِزِّ والمجدِ

Never blame someone who has become bashful

In the presence of an honorable and glorious friend

فَإِنَّ هَيبَتَه ذاتَ الوقارِ لَقَد

تَهابُها الأُسْدُ في الأَقفارِ مِن بُعدِ

For his dignified awe has made

Even lions fear him from afar
