أَصداغُهُ أَلِفٌ وَلامُ

وَلِحاظُهُ سَيفٌ حُسامُ

His cheeks are alif and lam

His garment is a sharp sword

وَكَلامُهُ دُرٌّ هَوى

لَمّا تَخَوَّنَهُ النِظامُ

His words are beloved pearls

When the system betrayed him

لَم يَنتَقِص في حُسنِهِ

فَلَهُ الكَمالَةُ وَالتَمامُ

His beauty was not diminished

For he has perfection and completeness

عَبَدَ الجَمالُ جَمالَهُ

فَلَهُ التَحِيَّةُ وَالسَلامُ

Beauty worshiped his beauty

So to him greetings and peace
