لِلَّهِ دَرّ أَبي السنان

مِن فارِس شهم الجَنانْ

My father Abu Sinan is a pearl

Among the brave, virtuous men

تَخشاهُ آسادُ الرِجا

لِ كَما تَهيمُ بِهِ القيانْ

Whom the lions dread

As the deer are smitten with love for him

فَبِبَأسِهِ يُشقي العِدى

وَبِحُسنِهِ يُصبي الحيانْ

With his might he afflicts the foe

And with his grace he makes the friends thrive
