هَل رَأَيتُم مُوَفَّقاً كَعَلِيٍّ
في الأَطِبّاءِ يَستَحِقُّ الثَناءَ
Have you seen Muwaffaq like Ali
Among the doctors, deserving of praise
أَودَعَ اللَهُ صَدرَهُ حِكمَةَ العِل
مِ وَأَجرى عَلى يَدَيهِ الشِفاءَ
God has endowed his heart with the wisdom of knowledge
And enabled his hands to bring healing
كَم نُفوسٍ قَد سَلَّها مِن يَدِ المَو
تِ بِلُطفٍ مِنهُ وَكَم سَلَّ داءَ
How many souls has he saved from the grip of death
With his gentleness, and how much illness has he cured
فَأَرانا لُقمانَ في مِصرَ حَيّاً
وَحَبانا لِكُلِّ داءٍ دَواءَ
He has shown us Luqman alive in Egypt
And a remedy for every malady
حَفِظَ اللَهُ مِبضَعاً في يَدَيهِ
قَد أَماتَ الأَسى وَأَحيا الرَجاءَ
May God protect the talent in his hands
That has ended sorrow and revived hope
