نادٍ عليه الندى والخَيْرُ مُنْبَسطٌ
والخَلْقُ تَقْصُدُهُ حافٍ وَمُنْتَعِلُ
He calls to whom the dew and goodness spread
And people flock to him barefoot and riding
أعْلا سَمَاه عليّ ذو العُلا فغَدا
بعزِّهِ وسَنَاه يُضْرَبُ المَثَلُ
The Most High exalted his name
So his might and stature became proverbial
سليلُ مسعودَ مسعودٌ وقد ظَهَرتْ
فيه الرِياسةُ بالأنوار تشتعل
Scion of Sa’d, auspicious, and his leadership
Now flames with splendor, luminous
