يا سيدا لاح نور الفضل منه لنا
وقرّط الاذن درّا من سنى خبره
O master, the light of his merit shone upon us
And the ear was adorned with the pearls of his news
كأنما هو شمس للعلوم نرى
منه الضياء ولم نقدر على بصره
As if he were a sun of knowledge from which we see
Radiance, but cannot perceive its source
