1. يا من بإمداحه اشترينا

    أموال كفيّه في الأنام

    O you, by praising whom we have bought

    the wealth of your two hands among humankind.

  2. هانت عليك اللهى فأضحت

    تباع في الناس بالكلام

    Gifts of money meant so little to you that they came

    to be sold among people for words.
