1. لك الخير شأنُ الجفن يحرسُ عينَه

    وهذا بعين الله يحرس دائماً

    May good be yours: an eyelid's role is to guard its eye.

    And this one is always guarded under God's watchful eye.

  2. تبيتُ له خمسُ الثريا مُعيذةً

    تُقلِّدُه زُهرُ النجوم تمائما

    The Pleiades' five spend the night warding harm away from it.

    The bright stars hang amulets about its neck.

  3. فيا جفنُ لا تنفك في الحفظ دائما

    وإن كنتَ في لجٍ من البحر عائما

    So, O vessel, may you always remain under protection,

    Even if you are afloat in the deep waters of the sea.
