1. بالرِّفا والبَنينَ والسَّعد والإِق

    بالِ والبُعدِ عَن بُلوغِ التَّناهِي

    With harmony, sons, happiness, and good

    fortune, and far from reaching an end,

  2. واتِّصالِ الوِدادِ والفَضل في الأَو

    لادِ كلٌّ يَأتي كعَبدِ اللَّهِ

    And lasting affection and excellence in the

    children, each one coming like ʿAbd Allāh.

  3. فهوَ نِعمَ المِثالُ والشَّكلُ لَولا

    هُ لنزَّهتُهُم عَن الأشباهِ

    For he is a fine model and counterpart; were it not for

    him, I would declare them beyond compare.
