1. أقر أعيننا بالعين أكرم من

    يحيى العباد محياه ومحياه

    The most generous has gladdened our eyes with the spring—

    he whose countenance and life give life to mankind.

  2. سلطاننا ذو اطاع الدهر سلطته

    دامت مؤرخة واختاره الله

    Our sultan, whose authority Time has obeyed:

    may it endure, its chronogram: “And God chose him.”
