إِذا ما اِنقَضى مَجلِسٌ لِلوَزير

شَهدنا بِأَن لا نَرى مِثلَه

When the vizier's council is adjourned

We bear witness that its like will not be seen

فَإِن عادَ أَبدَعَ في فِعلِه

بَدائِعَ تُنسي الَّذي قَبلَه

Should it convene again, his deeds therein

Will bring forth novelties that put the past in the shade
