مَن أَخلَصَ الوُدَّ بِحُبِّ اِمرِئٍ

بِغَيرِ عينِ الودِّ لا يُلْحَظُ

Whoever makes affection pure through love of another,

Is beheld by no eye but affection’s own.

فَاِحفَظْ عُهودَ الودِّ لا تَنْسَها

فربُّنا يحفظُ مَنْ يحفظُ

So keep affection’s covenants; do not forget them,

For our Lord safeguards whoever safeguards them.
