يا من على الجود صاغ اللَّه راحتهُ
فليسَ يحسِنُ غير البذلِ والجُودِ
O you whose palm God fashioned for generosity,
O you whose palm God fashioned for generosity,
so it knows nothing but openhanded giving and bounty;
So you are skilled in nothing but giving and generosity.
عَمت عطاياك مَن بالشرقِ قاطبةً
وأنت والجُود منحوتانِ مِن عُودِ
your gifts have reached everyone in the East, one and all—
Your gifts have reached everyone in the East,
you and generosity are carved from the selfsame wood.
And you and generosity are carved from the same wood.
Sol 6.1
