يَقولُ فَيُحسِنُ القَولَ اِبنُ لَيلى

وَيَفعَلُ فَوقَ أحسن ما يَقولُ

The son of Layla speaks well, and acts better than he speaks. A youth whom only the sincere befriend, while the insincere spurn him. So give glad tidings to the people of Egypt, for he has come to them, a Nile to go with their Nile.

فَتى لا يرزَأ الخُلّانُ إِلّا

مَوَدَّتَهُم وَيَرزؤه الخَليل

فَبَشِّر أَهلَ مِصر فَقَد أَتاهُم

مَع النيل الَّذي في مِصر نيل
