خَلَطْتُمُ الجَوْهَرَ بالجَوْهَرِ
وَشِبْتُمُ العَنْبَرَ بالعَنْبَرِ
You have mixed gem with gem
And ambergris with ambergris
أمْلَكْتُمُ أربعةً اربعاً
وطالعُ الإِملاكِ بالمشتري
You have owned forty by forty
And the rising of ownership is with the buyer
نثرتمُ المالَ ومثلُ الذي
نثرتمُ في الأرضِ لم يُنْثَر
You have scattered money, and that
Which you have scattered on earth was not scattered
دراهماً زُهْراً حَكَتْ أنجماً
زهراً خلالَ المجلس الأزهر
Dirhams and flowers have traced stars
Flowers amidst the most flourishing gathering
أبا علي وأبا القاسِم ال
فذَّيْنِ في المَنْظَرِ والمَخْبَر
Abu Ali and Abu Al Qasim
Two most excellent in appearance and experience
يا قُطُبَيْ آلِ الإمامِ الأولى
هُمْ فَلَكُ البادين والحضَّر
O two poles of the Imam's family
They are the axis of nomads and settled folk
دامتْ لنا نِعْمَتُنا فيكما
وَدُمْتُما فيها إلى المَحْشَر
May our bounty in you last
And may you last in it until the Day of Assembly
