1. ما دَواءُ الأَميرِ فَتحُ بن خاقا

    نَ سِوى شِعر هَذا الزَمانِ

    There is no remedy for the emir Fath ibn Khāqān

    except the poetry of this age.

  2. وَدَواءُ الأَميرِ أَن ينشدوهُ

    بَعضَ ما قالَهُ أَبو هِفّانِ

    And the emir's remedy is that they recite to him

    some of what Abū Hiffān said.
