يا عَينُ جودي عَلى عَمروُ بنِ مَسعودِ

أَهلِ العَفافِ وَأَهلِ الحَزمِ وَالجودِ

O my eyes, be generous to Amr ibn Mas'ud

The people of chastity, wisdom and generosity

أَودى رَبيعُ الصَعاليكِ الأُلى اِنتَجَعوا

وَكُلَّ ما فَوقَها مِن صالِحٍ مودي

The spring of valorous youths has passed away in Intaj

And all the righteous after it are grieving

المُطعِمُ الحيَّ وَالأَمواتَ إِن نَزَلوا

شَحمَ السَنامِ مِنَ الكومِ المَقاحيدِ

The one who feeds the living and the dead when they come

The choicest meat of the hump from the best she-camels

وَالواهِبُ المِئَةَ المِعكاءَ يَشفَعُها

يَومَ النِضالِ بِأُخرى غَيرَ مَجهودِ

And the one who gives away a hundred lean she-camels as charity

On the day of strife he doubles it without effort

إِنَّ مِنَ القومِ مَوجوداً خَليفَتُهُ

وَما خَليفُ أَبي وَهبٍ بِمَوجودِ

Indeed, among the people he has a successor after him

But the successor of Abu Wahb is not to be found
