1. لَنا أَخٌ مَن أَتى إِلَيهِ

    فَكُلُّ ما يَشتَهي لَدَيهِ

    We have a brother: whoever comes to him

    finds with him all he desires.

  2. وَلّى عَلى ما لِهِ نَداهُ

    فَاَخرَجَ الأَمرَ عَن يَدَيهِ

    He put his generosity in charge of what he owns,

    and so took the matter out of his own hands.

  3. إِن جاءَهُ القَصدُ وَهوَ عارٍ

    أَفرَغَ دَستَ الغِنى عَلَيهِ

    If a plea comes to him naked,

    he clothes it in the full raiment of wealth.
