وَمهينٍ ما زالَ في الناسِ مَحفو

ظاً مناهُ مِن كُلِّهِم حَرفُ جَرِّ

A name still guarded among the people,

Every letter of it protected from them all.

قيلَ يا صاحِ ما اِسمُهُ قُلتُ بَدرٌ

إِنَّما راءُ بَدرِهِ واوُ عَمروِ

It was said "O friend, what is his name?"

I said "Badr," for the "r" in his name is from Amr.
