يا مُنعِماً مَوْردُ إحسانِه

سَهلٌ فَما في مَنِّهِ مَنُّ

O Generous One whose favor is an abundant spring

Effortless; so there is no lack of favor in his gifts

قد اقْتَدى بالمُزْنِ في جُودِه

بل بِنداهُ يَقتدي المُزنُ

He has followed the rain clouds in his generosity

Rather, even the rain clouds follow his example

بَسَطْتَ كفّاً في النّدى والوغَى

ما كَفَّها بُخلٌ ولا جُبْنُ

You extended a generous hand in ease and hardship

Neither miserliness nor cowardice could restrain it

فاسلَم من الدّهرِ ففِيه على

كلِّ كريمٍ ماجِدٍ ضِغنُ

So he is safe from time's harms for in him is over

Every generous, glorious soul a shelter
