  1. ليسَ يخشى من نجمِ سعدٍ سقوطا

    من رأى قاضي القضاة عليّا

    He who has seen Ali, the judge of all judges,

    Need not fear the fall of any propitious star,

  2. سارَ قاضي القضاة للشامِ غيثاً

    فله الله سارياً وسريَّا

    The judge of all judges went as a bountiful rain to Syria,

    So may Allah make him forever flow generously!

  3. إن وجدنا وسميّ جدواهُ في الدن

    يا وجدنا في الدين منه وليَّا

    If we find wisdom useful in worldly affairs,

    How much more we find him a guardian friend in religion!

  4. قالَ إحسانهُ تهنُّوا نوالاً

    وزكاةً منهُ وكانَ تقيَّا

    He said: Be happy with his blessings,

    And with the purity that he exemplified.
