مهينمة جاءت بأوصاف ماجد

إِذا حل مصراً حَلّ في أرضها الخصب

With descriptions of Majid did she come

When he dwells in Egypt, fertility graces its land

فقمت وفي أذنيِّ فضل حديثها

وقد طربت مني السويداء واللب

I arose with her words still resounding in my ears

Made joyous by me are the black lands and the fertile

ابث إِلى علياه بعض خلاله

وهذا لساني بالثناء له رطب

Relate to her highness some of his virtues

And here is my tongue, moist with praise for him
