يا مَن تَسامَت بَل تَعلو بَلاغَتَهُ

سَمطَ الثُرَيّا وَما في المَيزِ تَرديدُ

O you whose eloquence transcends the highest heights

The Pleiades have fallen and there is no echo in the horizon

وَقَد تَسامَت عَلى الشِعري بَدائِعَهُ

وَمَن لَهُ في سَماءِ المَجدِ تَمجدُ

And your innovations in poetry have surpassed the masters

To you belongs eternal glory in the heavens

حَباكَ مَولاكَ تَمييزاً وَاِردِفهُ

بِمَنصِبِ قَدرِهِ في الفَخرِ مَعدودُ

Your Lord has singled you out, so follow it

With the position you deserve, counted among the greatest

جَزاءَ صِدقِكَ إيفاءَ وَمَكرَمَةٌ

إِذ حَسَّ قَصدَكَ وَالإِخلاصُ مَعهودُ

As reward for your truthfulness, fulfillment and nobility

Since your purpose and sincerity are well known
