قُلْ لمن تاهُ بالجما
لِ ومَنْ دلّ بالكمالْ
Tell whoever struts in beau—
—ty, and whoever flaunts perfection:
لا تَتَيهِوا ولم تَرَوْ
نِي فإنّي بلا مِثالْ
Do not strut—you have not yet seen—
—me; for I am beyond compare.
قد قَضَتْ لي بأنّها
أَمتي الشمسُ والهِلالْ
It has been decreed in my favor that
my handmaid is the sun and crescent;
والإمامُ العزيزُ فِيَّ
قَؤُولٌ بذا المقالْ
and Imam al-Aziz, speaking of me,
is wont to utter this very saying.
