وَفِتيانٍ حَوَوا كَرَماً وَجوداً

وَحازوا مِنهُما ما لا يُحازُ

Young men endowed with generosity and munificence

Attained from them what cannot be attained

إِذا جازَ المِطالُ بِوَعدِ قَومٍ

فَلَيسَ لَهُ بِوَعدِهِمُ جَوازُ

If people's promises are fulfilled

Then their promises have no validity

هُم في أَوجُهِ الأَيّامِ حُسنٌ

وَفي ديباجَةِ الدُينا طِرازُ

In the faces of days they are beautiful

And in the brocade of life adorned
