أَنجَدَ بِالمَكرُماتِ وَاِنتَصَرا

حَتّى اِستَقالَ الزَمانُ وَاِعتَذَرا

He triumphed with generosity and gained victory

Until time itself submitted and made amends

لَيثٌ إِذا التاثَ حادِثٌ وَأَتى

إِلَيهِ ظُفرٌ مِن رَأيِهِ ظَفِرا

A lion, when faced with adversity, would

Attain success through his own wisdom and prevail

بَينا تَرى دِرعَهُ لَهُ فَلَكاً

حَتّى تَرى وَجهَهُ لَهُ قَمَرا

You would see his armor like a sphere around him

You would see his face like a full moon shining
