ظِلُّ الوَزير مَقيلُ كُلِّ سعادَةٍ

يجدُ المُؤمِّلُ في ذَراهُ مُنْتَشا

The minister's shade is the ruin of all happiness

The hopeful finds in its dust only misery

مَن شاءَ منشا غِبْطَةٍ وسَعادةٍ

بلقائهِ يُدرِك ويلحَقُ ما يَشا

Whoever wants happiness and felicity

Will attain and obtain whatever he desires by meeting him
